    Default Centre Bearing

    Anyone know of a better alternative than the genuine holden centre bearing for the t/shaft on my VP V8 auto?? Had the car 7 years now on my third genuine one........

    Severe vibration from a standing start, once your doing about 40 kmh it stops.

    Is it possible you need a new constant velocity joint aswell? It could be shagging out your centre bearings one after the other. These days they're only about $80 - down from about $230 a year ago. Worth changing.
