I have a 2000 Saturn SL2. When i am driving down the road and go slightly to the right it starts to vibrate just a little. I first noticed it, it seemed to be slowing down just a little bit but i am no mechanic so i have no idea what is going on. where is the vibration coming from?

Welcome to the forum. :)

Does the steering wheel shake?
Do you feel it in the brake pedal?

I would check or have checked the suspension and steering components. I would consider these safety issues. Ball joints and tie rod ends could cause serious damage and injury. Don't let me scare you. I don't think that a slight viration requires immediate attention. However if not addressed in a reasonable period they can be very serious.

Also check that the wheel fasteners are all tight. Wheel bearings should also be tested with the steering and suspension items.

Good luck and let us know. :?: [/url]
