2004 corolla front end noise and vibration

have a front end check done for worn or broken suspension parts
have a wheel alignment done

It very well could be the strut.
smaller chance could be the CV axle.
Also have the splash guards/heat shields checked to make sure they are all tight in place.

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.

in all honesty havent a clue without a drive ,sorry

i would check your lower control arm bushings and stabilizer bushings that should fix the popping noises

Check your u-joints in your front axles. It sounds like it is time to replace them.

Vibration or a "shimmey" is an indication that the tires need to be balanced. This is not related to the wheel alignment you had done A poorly balanced tire will vibrate on its own, transferring the vibration all the way through the steering wheel. Have the tires balanced. If this doesn't fixy your issue, then the problem lies between the rotors (could have a warped rotor) and the rack and pinion. Best of luck on your problem.

does it vibrate durreing brak aplicatin, if so probably a out of round rotor,ifatlower speeds just driveing
most ikely a seperated tire

just checked this out a while ago:



Wheel Hub Assemblies: Systems and Diagnosis of Worn Hub Assemblies & Bearings
Front wheel hub assemblies and bearings control the position of, and reduce the resistance of, vehicle wheels in contact with the pavement. When they fail, front wheels may not be kept in position and vibration and noise usually develop. Symptoms that normally develop as a result of these worn parts include:

• A humming, rumbling or growling noise which increases with acceleration or as the vehicles turns
• Vibration felt in the steering wheel, which changes with vehicle speed or as the vehicle turns
• Looseness or excessive play in the steering wheel (especially while driving over rough road surfaces)
• A loud, constant grinding noise when driving the vehicle (heard in the most severe cases of a wheel bearing failure)
• Pulling to one side when braking.
• Roughness - with the vehicle of the ground, roughness or vibration when rotating the wheel
• Looseness - with the vehicle off the ground, looseness when wiggling the wheel back and forth (Looseness may also indicate a worn ball joint)
• Excessive brake pedal play can also indicate sloppy or excessively loose wheel bearings
• ABS failure in the system may be related to failure of the ABS sensor in the hub assembly or the internal sensor in the wheel bearing

Check the U-joints and axle baerings. But its most likely because the truck is in four wheel drive.
