Vibrating 99 1.8t~!
« on: 26 November 2006, 12:39 »
Hi all, been a problem free six months or so, all but for a service and water pump replacement, thing is, whilst covering some miles over the last 3 months, the car has developed quite an obvious vibration that gets progressively worse with speed increase.

Its definately not coming from the engine, (previous trouble with MAF etc resolved) but seems to be the actual front end. The steering feels slightly ''baggy'' and the vibration can be felt through the steering wheel too.

Not had it balanced yet but any input would be good?

Have you changed the wheels or had them off for any reason recently?
