Rep Power: 0 Roll Bounce!
Hey hey - so I'm new here but figured I'd give this a go before calling 20 different shops all around town. I have a shitty sense of humor so I'm gonna apologize for that one up front - and the novel - I'm terrible with stories :blablabla:
Aaaaanywho here goes - I have a 2011 Honda Civic LX (black beauty AKA my baby). We recently got about an inch of ice topped with a few inches of snow. My poor black beauty got stuck in the middle of the road in my neighborhood when trying to move it. I (admit-tingly) was an idiot and kept flooring the gas pedal turning wheels all different ways - reverse & drive - went from regular drive, to D3 to 2nd gear - none of it made a difference. So a few friends helped push so it wouldn't be stuck in the middle of the road all night. When driving today I noticed a slight bounce/shake, didn't think anything of it, figured there was still ice on tires or snow or on the road itself. As I keep driving (roads are now clear **for the most part**) the bouncing and shaking continues as if I'm driving down the road in Radiator Springs before Lightening McQueen fixed it . Bounce in the car itself and shake in the wheel that matches the bounce.The higher the speed I go the worse it gets. I thought I may have had a flat tire but nope. No shaking when braking so pretty sure there's no rotor issues. After accelerating to a higher speed then letting off gas it still shakes/bounces even when down to 15mph but gradually lessens as the speed reduces. If I lightly press gas it doesn't start it's roll bounce until about 20mph+.....any thoughts? :help: :5shots:

lift car.
remove wheels.
inspect
otherwise, it's a small gnome that got stuck in between the brakes and the wheel and is screeching with the friction.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

You got how much snow? How much ice?
Snow and/or ice packed in the wheels WILL make horrible shaking happen and it will continue to do so until you either remove the snow/ice buildup from each wheel, or it gets warm enough to melt it out of the wheels.
