#20122, "Engine Shimmy"




          

Hey guys, do you know if this is common in eclipses? I have a 96 rs and when I reach about 90 the car starts to shake pretty bad, but once I hit about 110 it seems to smooth out. Any Ideas?
Thanks!

could be... unbalanced tires, bad suspension alignment, or even bad shocks.

Sounds like a wheel balancing problem to me. Could be an out of round tire, or low tire pressure, or uneven tire pressure. check all of those out..
