Hi I have a 95 cx hatch and lately whenever
I let off the gas and let the car coast in a gear the steering wheel will wobble. Its like I my wheel is off balance , but only happens when in gear and off the gas. It won't happen when accelerating or in neutral and
I know I have to change my CV's they started clicking last week. Thanks for your help any help is good help.

does it do it when braking? something in your suspension maybe loose.. have you messed with any of it lately? brakes, shocks/struts/ steering/ tie rods/ ball joints?
does it do it at a specific MPH ?

sound like bad tie rods...... does it go away when you slightly turn the wheel. try to jack the car up nd see if the wheel wobbles. if it wobbles left to right its ur tie rods.

i had a similer problem and i did what IKON said to do (jack up car shake wheel). I got some new tie rod ends at autozone with a lifetime warrenty, now im good. Also ckeck your inner tie rods. Look and see if the rubber boot is messed up or torn.

that was my problem and my solution too. jus make sure u get an alignment or it will most likely feel the same or worse once replaced....... unless you can measure with ur eyes.

Could also be the control arm bushings , mine had a similar problem and it turned out to be the drivers side control arm bushing.
