i dont know if this right forum but just a little question. Ive had my celica since june, but about two months after i started noticing a little shaking in the steering wheel. I had the fronts balanced and the rest of the stuff checked. It was a little better for a awhile. Then it came back. so anyway i had to rotate my tires, did that and it helped a lot for like two weeks. now it starting to come back again, its better sometimes and worse others. And not always on rough road and smooth road too. So any info about past experiences would help. thanks guys

I had this problem when I first got my car and I got my ball joints tightened up. I went to 3 shops and 2 of them told me that I needed new ball joints and when I went to Toyota they just told me that my ball joints were not tightened enough. After the day I went to Toyota my shaking went away. Make sure you go to more then one shop since they may try to charge you for money by saying something actually needs to be replaced. Always get 2 - 3 opinions from different shops.
