Vibrating Ford Galaxy
20. Mar 2011 at 21:59

Chap at work has an '06 mk2 galaxy tdi. The problem is:

Noticeable vibration from the nearside front wheel when accelerating through 50 - 60.

All four tyres have been replaced and balanced, different brands front and back, and also wheels have been swapped front to back, no difference. Undecided

No obvious play from the wheel bearings or drive shafts either, and no vibration when braking. Undecided

Any thoughts?

TIA,

Al. Thumbs Up!
