Car Shaking over 50mph

[jtmarlin6]

My MP3 is shaking when it goes over 50mph. I have tons of snow up in my wheel wells and almost touching the tire. anyone have this problem in the winter? (shocked) I washed it, a few days ago. did something get frozen? or is it all the snow packed around the tire wheel well?

The problem is that there is snow inside your wheel. My car shakes even if i clean my wheel wells because there's snow left on the inside of my rim.

Yep... My P5 had the same issue last year. I just cleared out the snow and ice as best I could. The guys at the Mazda dealership let me sit in the garage for a bit to let it melt. =) A blow dryer would do it, too.

Thanks much for the quick answer! You guys RULE!

i had this in my P5 the other day and it scared the hell out of me, took it to the self wash, sprayed inside the wheels (there was ice rubbing a brake disc!) and it's all good!

The Car just shakes like crazy. It's NUTS!!! Some snow fell off mine today. It only was shuddering at about 60 mph now.

don't worry.. .it's just snow that's built up on the insides of the wheels. this throws off the balance at higher speeds. either go to a spray wash or wait till it melts.
