Re: Vibration from front end 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be jeff yeoh on  Fri May 11 19:23 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Have you got oval tyres? This happened to me once on my VW Golf GTi. brand new Bridgestone SF350 Fronts. Long trip 400km, can't remember if i pushed the car. on the return journey, the vibratiuons started and progressively got worse. later discovered my brand new tyres had turned oval!

this happens when the steel belt/s inside slip due to excessive heat.

just lift the car up on a jack, spin a front wheel and bring a ruler to the top of the tyre, if it's oval it'll rub the ruler at points.

best of luck.
