Maybe get the wheels rebalanced first? Cheap one.

I agree with Hemo, check the wheels. Mine are genuine 20'' and during last swap from winter to summer tires, it was obvious that one wheel had small dent from inside, I was not aware of that. RRS is a heavy vehicle so even slight hole could cause such thing. |

I'd get the balancing and alignment done for starters, but it won't cost you £150, should be no more than £60 even if they have to adjust from and rear.

Thanks for the suggestions, will start with balancing and alignment, does the vehicle have to be put in tight tolerance mode for the alignment, be interesting to see if the garages know this, had a quick look on the alignmycar site, most of my local ones appear to be bodyshops or there is an Ats euromaster which offer the before and after printouts, 4 wheel alignment for £65 Nanocom Evo |

I believe it does have to be put in the tight tolerance mode, just check when booking somewhere that they know that, if they aren't aware, then I'd chose another place.

Hi Jaggs, my 07 Sport is showing the exact same symptoms. Did you have it done in Leeds, if so where did you go. Cheers Pete |

Green oval will be close too tnen, good Indy Garage Landrover specialist, if you haven't had the oil pump done on your RRS then I would recommend you do before the tensioner snaps and kills the engine, 2007 are prone for it, I had to have a new engine. Nanocom Evo |

cheers Jaggs, i know Green Oval, will check my service history to see if Oil Pump got done with Cambelt change. My alignment was way out (see image) and sorted thanks to Master Car, still got an issue with rough steering and DSC. Forum suggests it could be rear bushes or steering pump fluid. But Alignment issue was a good catch thanks to you, Master Car tech said i would have wreck my new tyres if i continued driving as was. |
