Our '07 RX with 315k km (196k miles) has bad steering wheel vibration at speeds above 65 mph. It's definitely not a wheel balance issue because that's the first thing I tried.

I'm guessing something is worn out in the front suspension. There's no noticeable noise so I'm not sure if its a bearing or some other part like ball joints or some rubber bushings that are looking pretty rough.

Any suggestions as to what to check first? I can most likely do it myself as long as no hoist is required.

1. Search at Forum first.
2. How old are your tires?

check the front lower control arm bushings

Been looking at those last few seasons when swapping summer/winter wheels. They are pretty rough looking, probably first thing I'll try replacing.
