My 2005 Honda Accord EX with 175,000 miles has developed a vibration somewhere in the suspension. It has new brakes, new tires, and has recently been in for an alignment and balancing, and still, the vibration remains, especially at speeds over 60 mph. What am I missing?

Have someone inspect the intermediate axle shaft bearing.

The intermediate axle shaft is what allows both half shafts to be the same length. This eliminates torque steer when accelerating.

If the intermediate axle shaft bearing is worn, it can transfer the vibration down the right side axle into the suspension.

Thanks so much. I’ll have that looked at.
