Hi All
Weird one this. My car has been vibrating for a few months now, around 60mph, but having now driven it a while there is a steering wheel vibration which is intermittent. It vibrates for about 10 to 15 seconds then goes away for same time, then comes back. Happens between 60 and 90, steady throttle on same road surface - very odd. Any ideas? Both front wheels have been balanced recently but that wouldn’t explain it coming and going... It’s a 70 car with 3.2 Carrera front end if that makes any difference, but can’t see how it could. |

Bought new tires and immediately a small small vibration. Tire shop rebalanced but I still didn't like it. Had them turn the tires 180 degrees when we discovered the 'weighted side' of he tire was incorrect. Go to a new car dealer than you'll see little green stickers on tires. That needs to be exactly at the valve stem. It's to offset the heavy side of the tire with the wight of the valve stem. Might look at that. fixed my problem.
