Hi guys I am stuck in a quandry. I have a 2006 infiniti m35x with 88000 miles. The problem that I am having with it, it shakes when I make slight turns. The steering wheel is between 12 clock and 1 clock but it doesn't shake if the turn is steeper than that and it only happens at speeds between 40 and 60 miles per hour. Before I got an alignment the car used to shake when I was making left turns. After I got the alignment the car started to shake when I make right turns. I also got my tires balanced in the front since I think the shaking comes from the front since it only happens when I make a slight turn. Please help.me guys I am stuck. I have people tell me that it could be a front axle a bearing or a suspension part. Please help me. Thank you

that sounds like a loose wheel bearing I would take it too a good shop and have the front end checked avoid the dealer if possible

Did the alignment shop give you a before and after report?

The readings were way off. The tires on both sides used to point outwards.

And after? I suspect that your tires are cupped or alignment is still off. Free test, rotate your rear tires to the front in an x pattern and see if it still happens.

The camber was within accepted tolerance before and after the alignment. Tge caster was fine also. But the toe was way off left side .44 the. Right tire .33. After the aligment .02 on the left and .05 on the right. . I. Will do a tire rotation tomorrow and see if that helps.
