SOURCE: my cadillac dts has bad vibrations over 50 mph ,

very well could just be a bad tire. I have replaced brand new tires straight from manufacturer you should check for a bad wheel or balance of tire and perferabley somewhere where they do a phase match balance.

I would have a pressure test done on the fuel system. the fuel pump could be going out. also does the check engine light come on, if so can you get the codes checked?

Fix for cadillac deville 2000-2003 vibration between 65-70 mph

Have your Mechanic check the steering tie rod bushings, and linkage. Sometimes it's just an adjustment to the steering box play(located at the end of the steering wheel shaft), - easy to fix.

Vibration on 2004 Cadillac Deville

If a hub bearing was bad, it almost always would make noise, more so when changing lanes at higher speed. Outer CV joints make a loud low pitched rattle when turning (corners). Inner CV joints raise hell at high speed- bad shake! Sway links affect cornering and clunk when hitting rough patches of road surface.
Is the vibration worse at 65 than at 50? If so, you are dealing with a wheel balance situation. Find an old time front end shop that will check the balance on the vehicle. You will have to turn off the traction control to do this or use an on-the-car wheel balancer.
If you feel it at some low speeds at it comes back at other higher speeds, then you are dealing with tire roundness. Possible more than 1. More common than we would like.

2004 deville front end vibration at 67-75 mph

Check your strut mounts, and front struts, my 2004 cadillac deville did the same thing between 67 and 75mph and after time it shook between 58 to 80mph, and it was the front strut mounts were egged out, and front struts were weak. I had my tires balanced, wheel bearings replaced, and it didnt help.

Car vibrates at about 48 mph. tranny issue ? modulater valve ?

Could be torque converter shudder. Changing the transmission fluid and filter and adding an additive designed to eliminate converter shudder might help.

Car shaking and vibrating at 55 mph. and does it again at 65-70.

Hi:
Since your BMW 540 series is a rear wheel drive car, a common cause of that sort of vibration is often the U joints on your drive shaft. The vibration often only shows up and certain speeds.

It isn't a particularly expensive repair, but is something to have checked out!

2002 Caddy DeVille - slight vibration 60 to 75 mph

I would guess incorrectly tightened or installed wheel bearing. Or it might just need to get greaced.

Engine knocking/vibration

A few different things could be causing this, most are internal engine components. First off, take your tires and have them balanced to make sure you didn't accidently fling off a tire weight when you hit a pothole. Next, if that is not it, either you have a blown head gasket, cracked rings, or bad rod/main bearings.
