This car has a vibration after 50mph especially when I am stepping on the gas to go up above 50mph

what kind of repair am I looking at. I heard cv joints etc.

So I found one place on ebay that sells it. Would replacing this be enough.

HI there,

Thank you for the donation,

Is this a steering or a body vibration?

Hi there,

start with tyres (condition & pressure settings) steering components and suspension components, these should really be inspected by a qualified mechanic as they are trained to check correctly, (there are specific methods for different suspension set ups) I would be expecting the fault to be here.

He says run flat tires is causing many a suspension problems.

Something about a Turanza recall or a problem. These are about 2 years old.

Check with your tyre retailer, new tyres may fix your problem.
