wheel shimmy-in turn
I don't get a shimmy going straight but if I hit a bump in a long fast sweeping turn the wheel starts to shimmy and will not stop until I slow down. I had the wheels balanced but no help. Car is 94 fwd with 85K miles.
Could it be shocks? No leaking and it feels firm. Tires near new. Thanks in advance. I haven't align it in a couple of years. Ray |

I was also able to feel almost every bump through the steering wheel--sometimes the wheel would jerk going over bumps esp. on the highway and shimmy like you've described when hitting bumps in turns. Now, I hear and feel the bumps thru the car but the wheel is rock solid 99% of the time. Good luck, Dan |

Seems to be a common problem with the SVX.
Most Struts only last about 5 years, therefore all SVXii should be on at least the second set. As performance drop-off is gradual, the only change is really noticed when new are fitted and you are hit by the 'WOW' factor |
Have you checked the ball joints. they will cause that if they are a little loose.
