Ok I need you guys help here. It’s not with my V, but with my wife’s Camaro. Hoping yall don’t mind helping out with this.
So I don’t normally drive her car, but did the other day and noticed at high speeds i was getting this off and on vibration. It’s a little hard to describe, but it’s not always doing it. Just mainly at high speeds and and off and on, and more frequently as of late. Mostly annoying. The wheels and tires are fairly new from last year(Bestwheeldeals here) and I assumed balanced. My wife thought it was the roads she was on, but I definitely figured out it wasn’t that. First thought, take‘m to do a balance. So this morning I took it to Discount Tire and had that done. Nothing at all changed. We immediately went on the freeway and a long trip and it vibrated the whole time(off and on of course). So now I’m looking for what the next cause may be. The Camaro hasn’t seen any front end damage or no time has it hit a curb. Just can’t figure out what else it might be. Anyone that might have a clue, please chime in. Appreciae it boys

Drive at 15 - 20mp, if the car slightly rocks than it a bad rotor or bent wheel.
Drive 60 - 70, if the car has a shimmy than go away after 70mph then the front tires need balancing.

You alluded to "aftermarket" wheels. Are they hub centric? I experienced something similar with aftermarket wheels and had to get hub centric rings. That was my cure.

I think after digging a bit more, assuming the SS is the same transmission as the RS, this video describes exactly what’s happening. Apparently these Camaros had some serious torque converter/trans issues. Selling this MFr before things go way south. Gosh dang it!! I’d have bet a million bucks it was a wheel issue!

Hi, check if the vibration come when the engine run on 4 zyl. It was the problem in my Case on my 2016 V. After change the Converter, the issue was solved.

Ok will do. Was it hard to change that converter? And the cost in US dollars to change it?

SORRY, I don`t know because the V was under Warranty, so I pay nothing
