Dynamic Car Wheel Jumping Problem! (Generic Spring + Motor)

Support Animation and Rigging

I’ve been struggling with a Blender problem for around a day now and can’t see any solution for it.
I’m creating a dynamic car with 4 generic spring constraints at the wheels and 2 motor constraint for the back wheels.

It all seems to be working fine, except that when the wheels reach around 90° on the rotation axis, they start to wiggle around like crazy.
These are my generic spring and motor settings:

I don’t know what to do. I’ve been trying to use limit rotation on the wheels but that doesn’t fix the problem.

Hope you guys can help me out!
Thanks !!

I have that problem too. How can I fix it.

Wheels and empties need to have the same rotation.

Post a basic sample .blend if you need more help.

That works only with X axis
doesn’t work with Y axis

You only need to rotate it then.
Just make sure the rotating object and the empty have the same rotation in the object transform panel.

Sorry for the late response. I figured it out on my own, but this is the exact solution! Thanks.
