Hi,
Not posted on this site before, but have done a few on "the other site" a while ago, so hello!
A while ago, I started getting a vibration through the car at 70+ (on the speedo - i.e. less than 70 ). It's a little hard to describe, but a kind of deep humming noise and a gentle buzz at my feet. A little like driving on the rumble strip on the motorway - only much less violent.
Then, slowly, this started to happen at lower speeds too, then all over the place. I reckoned on UJs and got my local garage to check them out. They replaced the very front one (with one I supplied from Milner) and everything was smooth as silk again - until I hit 70. The "original" problem was still there.
I don't know if the original vibrations caused the UJ to fail (or accelerated the failure) or if it was totally unrelated. The vibrations don't seem to be getting any worse, but it can't be healthy and it's driving me nuts!
If anyone has an insight, I'd be very grateful!
Cheers,
Dan.
