I am buying a 93 Vigor with 138K miles....Ive driven it & everything checks out powertrain wise, doesnt leak coolant, or overheat, shifts well, good power, yada yada but since I wasn't able to drive it over 40mph (was in a residential area) I noticed that the steering wheel started to veryy slights shake.

Is this a problem with a worn tie rod end?....I noticed that it needed an alignment since front wheels weren't quite going the same direction.(very slightly off)

Anything else anyone can offer to look for ?...I do all of my own work & am use to old BMW's...this is my first Honda / Acura.

TYIA.

The problem could stem from a worn tie rod. It could also stem from bad tires, esp. if they were not rotated often.

 

get a wheel alignment, and get your tyres balanced.
