Hello All.
I have a 2002 LSE V8. I have the infamous intermittent steering wheel wobble that happens between 60-75 MPH. This car was driven by the previous owner 10 miles a day and hadn't been over 55 MPH since 2008. There is no other noises or clunks at all in the steering. The local tire/wheel place I trust road force balanced the wheels/tires twice. Vibration is still there. The local Lincoln dealership replaced a bad toe-link, four wheel alignment, and said they couldn't find the vibration. I suspect they drove the car a short distance, couldn't find the vibration, and called it a day. Both my local trusted mechanic and the dealership said all other suspension components are tight and tip-top. However, The vibration is still there.
I read about TSB 01-15-1 about the yoke spring/ Steering rack spring needing replaced to eliminate what they describe as steering wheel nibble. Has anyone experiencing the steering wheel wobble had the yoke spring replaced and did that eliminate the wobble?
Thanks!
