I recently bought an s2000. There's always been a whizzing sound coming from the front passenger side of the car. I was driving about 3 weeks ago, and the wheel studs snapped. I replaced the studs, along with the wheel bearing and tie-rod end. Since then, there's been a clicking noise when I turn. Also, there's a groove being created on both front rotors evenly. I replaced the pads, in hopes of fixing the rotor issue. Instead, I found the pads had 70% life left, but I replaced them anyways. I was driving down the road around 50 mph an hour later, and it just started to vibrate. The entire car was shaking, along with the shifter vibrating. I checked the wheel bearings, and they're tight. When I brake, it stops shaking. I'm not really sure what to think of all this. My best guess, is a bad tie rod. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

did you get an alignment after you swapped the parts? Also, check your tire pressure.

I didn't get an alignment yet. I didn't think it would make sense to do it, considering the condition of the car. I went to Honda today, and it sounds like the other tie rod end is bad. I'm going to fix it Wednesday, and I'll keep this thread updated.

I think it's the tie rod end on the driver's side. I'm replacing it Tuesday. How do I check if the CV joints are bad, if the boots aren't torn?
