Some Kia K900 owners report experiencing unresolved electrical and driveline vibration issues, even after replacing the tires multiple times. These oscillating vibrations can lead to uneven tire wear and potential damage to the drivetrain if not addressed promptly. Common causes identified include worn slip splines, U-joints, components that are out of balance, misaligned angles, and yoke run-out. Additionally, some owners note that vibrations may increase with driveshaft speed, indicating possible driveshaft imbalance or yoke run-out, which could be alleviated by rotating the U-joint. It is crucial for owners to conduct a thorough inspection of driveline components, such as the driveshaft, U-joints, and motor mounts, to accurately diagnose and correct the source of the vibrations. Consulting a qualified mechanic or dealership experienced in driveline issues is recommended to effectively resolve these persistent problems.
