    Default VE SV6 UTE ENGINE 'CENTRE BALANCING' PROBLEM?? in S.A.

    Hey everyone,

    Just about to purchase a 2008 VE SV6 UTE (quite excited)

    However, the engine is apparently slightly 'out of alignment' and needs 'centre balancing' or something..

    The motor slightly vibrates on idle and whilst driving, and by slight i mean i could hardly even tell..

    Im aware this vehicle has been previously in an accident and all other aspects of the car are 100%

    Would be great to hear anyones thoughts on this problem and roughly how much it'd cost to 'centre balance' or so this bloke tells me..

    Cheers people,

    Martin

    ???? can't see a accident effecting the balance of the engine. maybe the drive line is out of alignment causing the issues? get more info maybe he's suggesting loosening off the K frame and tweaking it to align the drive train?
