Couple Of Problems...

Post by Alun »

Hi all. On my B5 20VT I'm getting a rather annoying wobble/vibration through the wheels and steering wheel. I usually get a bit of steering wheel shake when accellerating hard around 40- 75mph, and when braking too. Also if I coast at say 40-50mph I get a kind of wobble that feels like it's coming from the rear of the car. I got an advisory on the MOT that the anti rollbar bushes were worn. Could these cause such a vibration/wobble? Nothing else came up on the MOT so I reckon the front arms are still ok. Any other ideas?

Help as the car will be going up for sale soon and I'd prefer not to go to a garage and start paying labour fees. :?: :?: :?:

P.S. I put bigger alloys on it and it seemed to amplify the vibration.
