    Default vz sv6 problem. shudder at high speed

    hi all

    i was taking a mate home the other day and i had to go on the m5 but i never go on the free way as i work like 2 minutes down the road from my house. As i turned on the free way i put my foot down a little bit and was doing about 110 and i had like a shudder in the sterring wheel and the car felt like it had a little shudder. you can see the shudder it in the steering wheel, It doesn't do it at 80 only over 100.

    Anyone else had this problem and how can it be fixed....

    i had this EXACT problem. Was a slightly buckled rear wheel. Id check the local mechanic and ask if they will check it out before getting a balance. Mine didnt even charge me to check it.

    Best way to check jack up front wheels, spin them to see if any are buckled or out of shape. Do the same to the rear.
