Wheel Nuts and Tires
Loose or over-tightened wheel nuts can cause vibrations and even be dangerous, so ensure they are tightened to the manufacturer’s torque specifications.
Incorrectly balanced wheels or uneven tire wear are frequent sources of vibration at speed. If you recently changed tires or wheels, have them checked and balanced.
Also check tire pressure and inspect for any damage or uneven wear patterns that might cause shaking.
Other Common Causes of Vibrations in a 2017 Corolla
Engine and transmission mounts: Worn or damaged mounts can cause noticeable vibrations, especially at higher speeds or when accelerating.
Suspension components: Worn ball joints, bushings, or other suspension parts can cause vibrations and creaking noises over bumps.
Exhaust system and rubber hangers: Loose or damaged exhaust hangers can cause vibration and noise.
Spark plugs, air filters, and fuel injectors: Dirty or worn spark plugs and clogged air filters can cause rough running and vibrations, particularly at idle or low speeds.
Torque converter issues: If vibrations occur mostly when idling in drive and stop when in neutral, the torque converter might be faulty, which is a more expensive repair.
What to Do Next
Check and properly torque your wheel nuts.
Have your wheels balanced and tires inspected for wear or damage.
Get a professional inspection of engine mounts, suspension, and exhaust components.
Consider a tune-up including spark plugs, air filter, and fuel system cleaning.
If vibrations persist mostly at idle in drive, have the torque converter checked. - @leo3__124.06.2025 14:18MemberIn summary, while loose or improperly tightened wheel nuts can cause vibrations, it’s important to also inspect tires, wheel balance, engine mounts, and other components. Many 2017 Corolla owners have found vibration issues linked to these areas, so a thorough check is recommended to pinpoint the exact cause.

Hi everyone, I’ve noticed some vibrations while driving my 2017 Toyota Corolla, especially at higher speeds. Could this be due to my wheel nuts? Maybe they’re loose or over-tightened? Has anyone else experienced similar issues or have advice on what to check? Thanks!
