Vibration At 100 Km/h Or More

[dangafo]

I remember reading about this in reviews before I bought the car, but I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned in this forum.

 

Wheels have been alligned. When I mentioned the issue to my dealer they seemed to think it's an issue that comes with the model.

 

It used to be the steering wheel vibratng, now I think it's more the whole car.

 

Any opinions?

 

Many thanks

Just a thought, have you had all 4 wheels balanced? If you have the standard alloys fitted sometimes the weights have a tendancy to fly off, I have the same model and have no problems like yours.Do a quick check of wheel tightness and for play in the bearings for peace of mind. Hope you're sorted soon, regards, Brian.

Having done more observations, this seems to be intermittent. Observing things even closer it seems to happen on the same road! Could it be the way the suspension deals with this surface? I notice that revs don't matter (i.e. it vibrates regardless whether I am accelerating or not), but it tends to come with the speed.

It has been mentioned, there are several threads but you will need to use the Search Function.

Thanks Randombloke, I can see now.

 

I must say it hasn't been to bad lately, but I did get a few ideas for when (and if) it gets worse
