VW Jetta Virbrating Steering Wheel

My 2001 Jetta 2.0L steering wheel vibrates at about 60+ mph and when I turn the steering wheel to the right into a turn, the vibration intensifies.



I’ve changed and rotated my tires, but to no avail, the problem persists.



I have yet to take this problem to a mechanic until I’ve found out what the issue actually is, as I do not want to get jerked around.



I’ve looked around on various VW blogs, and from what I can gather, the CV joint needs to be replaced/repaired. Do you have any insight? …

This sounds like CV joints to me, too!

[b] Would you rather have an accident because a part totally failed on the freeway? [/b] 

For your sake and for your family and other drivers, have this checked out at a good shop.

Yes it sounds like a C/V joint, but don’t take it in and say "I want a new CV joint. Have them check it before replacing it.

Well thank you for your quick response. I have found a reliable mechanic and will be taking me car. in this week.
