What kind of car makes a vibration at 60 mph?
The first vehicle is a 2003 Ford Taurus. It has P215/60/R16 tires. At 60 mph, a vibration can be felt. The vibration is vehicle-speed related. It is felt in the seat and the steering wheel. The old “buttometer” says it is a common tire balance problem.
When does the noise change independent of engine speed?
Note that the question specifically states the noise is independent of engine speed – as long as the vehicle speed is above a certain point, the sound remains present and its pitch and volume are not affected when the engine speed changes independent of vehicle speed (e.g.: down-shifting while maintaining 60 MPH). – Iszi Oct 23 ’15 at 14:53

What makes the vibration start at 60 mph?
No, turning does not make vibration worse or better. Also, applying brakes does not make a difference (not a warped brake rotor disk problem). Vibration only starts at about 60 MPH and then gets worse as speed increases. Vibration is even visable (steering wheel shakes). Possible passenger side axle problem.
What kind of vibration does a car make?
Now vibration starts at about 68 MPH (was 60 mph). Due to process of elimination, I now strongly suspect a bad CV shaft, but they both appear OK. No clicking noise when turning and no noticible issues when moving them in and out towards transmission. Sounds like they are trying !
How can I duplicate the vibration on my front end?
See if the shop you’ve been dealing with for the other parts replacement will put it on a lift and watch the axles if the symptom is able to be duplicated on the lift then you’ll have it figured out.I would suggest have the tech who will be in it on the lift , go out and test drive with you to know how to duplicate the vibration on the lift.
