Vibration in front end. Can't determine why
I just bought a 2002 SC430 from a Hyundai dealer. Love the car!
On the way home after signing all the paperwork I noticed a small vibration in the front end of the car only on slowly accelerating from a stop sign. The vibration will occur every time between 5 & 20mph. Then it goes away. Easy to miss during the purchase thinking it might be a rough road or pothole. The dealer took it to there service department thinking it may be a front end problem with the tie rods, ect. Everything checked out. Again, only occurs while accelerating from a stop. Once the car hits 5mph the vibration starts and ends a few seconds later when 20mph is reached.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!
