The effect of characteristic parameters of a system describing a wheeled assembly on the oscillatory-instability domain is analyzed. The influence of the accuracy of approximation of the lateral force and the heeling moment on the behavior of self-exciting oscillations is examined. A bifurcation set that divides the plane of parameters into domains with different number of limit cycles is constructed
