CR-V Vibration
My 2003 CR-V vibrates at around 52 mph.
The vibration is felt thru the steering wheel, but the dealer's quality
expert thinks the source is at the rear and, when I ride in the passenger
seat, it seems to come from the rear of the vehicle.
Dealer has inspected and balanced the wheels/tires twice, rotated
wheels/tires, temporarily replaced tires with new tires of the same make,
and replaced the drive shaft with no improvement.
Most peculiar is that it is much worse on cool mornings when the tires are
cold.
Greatly reduced, but still noticeable on warm sunny afternoons when the
tires are warm.
Sounds like tires to me, but all tires have been temporarily switched to new
ones with no benefit.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Carl

Not tires then, so it has to be something else. Could be a worn or binding
CV joint in one of the rear axles. Could be a wheel bearing, but these
(according to an earlier post I read) rarely fail. Could also be a slightly
out of balance rear prop shaft. Check the unijoints.

My 2003 CR/V with Alloy wheels gave me similar trouble at high speed
last winter because the shape of the Alloy wheels allowed mud, water and
snow to collect on the inside bottom of the wheel while parked, which
then froze. If the weather stayed below freezing then the wheel was out
of balance next time we hit the road. Of course by the time the CR/V was
in the shop for inspection the ice and muck was gone.
My solution last winter was to scrape the residue off when it became a
problem. My solution for this year is a set of winter tires on a set of
standard steel rims.

Keith,
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
I should have said I am in Southern Arizona.
No snow, no freeze, plenty of CR-V vibration.
