VIBRATOR
« on: 29 September 2009, 15:40 »
work mates 1.8 gl has vibration problem over 30mph, get worse with speed, seems unrelated to engine speed, worse when turning right>
indicates prob on the left, has had one new balanced tyre on front + swapped around wheels with spare to see if that helped but no change,
no play in track rods, drive shafts/cvs, bearings seem fine, no obvious loose sus parts/bushings/ needs more looking though.
Has crash damage to front+back
any ideas please

Sounds like a warped disc.

Doubt its cv coz thats a knocking noise! But as its worse on turning then it could be!  :undecided:

I would replace the knackered discs first then see.
