I bought my car 2 months ago and it started to shake all of a sudden since a couple of days. I live in a cold weather and I thought the air in the tires might have been low. I got air and then it stopped shaking for that day but again I am feeling the pulsation or wobble while driving now even at 5-10 mph. It shakes mostly on the left side. Also, to let you know, when i was filling my air, the left front wheel was very low on air about half of its recommended pressure. The tire doesnt look flat yet. Please suggest me if it is a problem with tire or something else. Thank you very much

Maybe it is the tire. Try exchanging the back tire to the front if it is the same. Tire is either defective or just out of balance.

Check the rims too if it is bended.

Hi dsplc, thanks a lot for the reply. I figured out what the problem was !! There was a lot of ice on the mudguard behind the tire and when I cleaned it, the problem was gone!! One of my colleagues also encountered the same problem and could overcome his by doing the same :)

Thanks again for your advice. Take care :)
