| I recently bought a '08 4-door Si and after 2 weeks and 500miles, later i started noticing a shimmy in the steering and possibly a subtle shimmy in the cabin . I do a lot of highway driving and this kicks in after 50mph and is consistent. Anyone seen this problem or is this a known issue? I am taking the car to the dealership next week, but doubt they would be of any help. Any suggestion is appreciated? | |

Replying to: ssens (Oct 15, 2008 4:26 am)  When I say "thrown a weight," I mean exactly that. One (or more) of the little balancing weights may have been flung off the wheel(s). It's not a very common thing to happen, but it can happen and is nothing to panic or lose faith in the car over. An improperly balanced or misaligned wheel can also cause cupping in the tire. Just take it to the dealer and have them check things out.

Replying to: tayl0rd (Oct 15, 2008 5:41 am)  but i have been conservative on the Si as i didnt want to push the car for the first 1000miles. Good to know it can still some issues like you mentioned above, right out of the dealership. Lets see what the dealer says.
