Urgent help required! please - semi sorted - just need parts.
#5
thanks guys, so a few things to check. but now i have 5 mins, i will give more details.

Yesterday i hit a bloody great pot hole...... everything seemd fine, but it was only a 300 yard drive home after hitting the pot hole.

So today the vibrations happen, and it is a sever shudder when it starts. If i drive short distances, and calmly is not there at all. but if i go on the motorway, it will appear after about 10mins of 60 plus driving. If i stop for a couple of minutes, it disappears.

The shuddering, is while cruising, and the trasitions between acceleration and braking. when the shuddering happens it pulls to the left.

Checks i have done so far -

with wheel off floor - check for bearing play, rock wheel all round - nothing untoward.
with wheel on floor - rock wheel from top and sides, nothing untoward.

so i think regardless the wheel has to come off, and everything inspected.

thanks guys Smile
