Dont know what your spec is but I have 22" alloys and had to gt them rebalanced twice. Must admit, sometimes I get a bit of vibration accelerating between 60 and 70 but its not a balancing issue as when you are not accelerating it doesnt vibrate. Mine is a 57 plate txv8.

I am sure the dealers would have checked against a bulletin issued early this year which addresses the issue of the steering wheel vibrating at 50-70 mph, however, no harm checking if they've considered it...

I see the cat you narrowly missed has returned to the scene of the crime. |

I have exactly the same problem of vibration at 1750 rpm which is worse with a small amount of steering angle at lower speeds. I am not sure wether to live with it or try and chase the fix. |

Corben, take a look at ; http://www.rrsport.co.uk/forum/post104842.html#104842 I had my front diff replaced because of vibrations through the steering wheel....worn front diffs are quite well known in the FFRR's and I suspect RRS will also have some probs RRS TDV6 Bluetooth, VR, Roof |

hi Lateral5 I remember following this post but it became a bit confused between shimmy and vibration. It definitely feels like a diff issue on my car as it all has to do with load and steering angle. Which dealer did the diff replacement? cheers, Anthony TDV6, MYO7 Java with Ivory leather, 19 inch wheels |

I doubt DSC would have made much if any difference. Big heavy car. So once it goes, I'm afraid the weight would accelerate it into a spin at the very least and it probably would have stayed upright if it wasn't for the stone wall being there.
