Shake Rattle and Roll

Hey Guys,

Loren this one is for you. I am still having issues with my ignition. Everything works fine except when actually try to turn the engine. The key goes in perfectly and everything functions normal except when turning the key to start the car. What actually happens is that I have to hold the key in the start position for sometime before it actually starts. Sometimes it starts in 5-10 seconds, but sometimes it takes over a minute. I am at a loss! I replaced the ignition switch 2 twice and both seemed to work for a very limited time. Would start on the first attempt for a couple of days and then it got progressively worse. Any ideas?

Secondly, I have noticed that I am getting a steering vibration when I an travelling at about 50-60 while going a slight turn on the freeway, it seems more serious on left curves than right, but still get the vibration. Sometimes it is more severe while accelarating. What could be the problem. Could this be a damper problem?

Any ideas at all?

Where are you getting your switches from? Do they say made in China?

Vibration can be caused my numerous things - like bent wheel, out of balance tire and/or wheel, worn suspension parts.

I suggest that you find a good alignment shop and have them start checking.
