Vibration

Have a vibration in my 09 rav4, starts at 25mph to about 40mph. Then seems to disappear. Had the tires rebalanced and rotated, still there.

    I dunno....when you have a vibration that you can "drive through", tires are a prime suspect. Do you feel this in the steering wheel, or only in the "seat of your pants"?

    I suppose you could check all components being driven by the serpentine belt, for being bolted down properly.

    If the vibration were from 0 mph on up, I might suspect drive axles.

    Usually wheel end vibrations (tires, wheels, etc.) are in the 50 to 70 mph range. Since this is 25 to 40 mph, I'd suspect driveline - u joints in particular.
