I have a 95 GT Conv and it has a weird vibration. It starts getting noticable at aroung 25-30mph and gets worse as I increase speed. At first I could only feel it at the clutch pedal or gas pedal, now I can feel it at the steering wheel and it is starting to vibrate the dash as well. When I go around a left curve it goes away until I go start to go straight again. It doesn't matter what the engine speed is, only on how fast I'm going. Does this sound like a wheel bearing on the drivers side? Any thoughts would be apreciated!

Thanks

How bad is it? Your wheels could need balanced.

Well, it started off very unnoticable and has gotten progressively worse. It's kind of hard to explain, It is a real fast vibration dependent on speed (it stays the same whether I have the clutch pushed in or the the brake pushed in), at first I only noticed it at the foot controls and now it vibrates the dash and is very anoying. When I turn the steering wheel slightly to the left the vibration decreases, it decreases more, the more I turn it left. Hope this helps

You can try swapping front and rear wheels/tires to see if the vibe follows the wheel/tire.

Wheel bearings can start to rumble pretty quickly when they're on the outs.

The issue has to be something huge if your dash is rattling. I'd give the underside of the car a thorough once-over immedlately.

Good luck.

i had a similar problem where i would have a smooth vibration where i felt it at the foot pedals and steering wheel especially when turning left or right, it turned out to be my rear tires.
