Couple of ???

Okay. When I am driving I get a vibration in the wheel above 50mph. Its the worst at about 54mph and it vibrates to some degree as high as I've took it (80mph)

And not sure if this is related to the ?? above. When I cut the wheel the whole way on the drivers side wheel it grinds. I know CV/axles can click and grind (like the click). This is a constant grind. I have an appt with the dealership on monday. The power train is still covered, so I am hoping its the axle/CV joint.

Thanks

i know this is a dumb thing but check the lug nuts as well make sure they are torqued down correctly

Now that I think of it. I noticed it after the dealership replaced the wheel bearing last month...It was covered by the warranty so I let them do it. Apparently only in 07 they covered wheel bearings in the power train.

Tie rods whould most likely vibrate at all speeds and when turning. The vibration I am having also doesn't do it when I am going around turns.

5 year/100k I'm at 91k now so I hope what ever wants to goes before I hit 100k
