Way to read into nothing.
I've seen your other posts. This forum is nothing like whirlpool. We've had a few bad eggs, but they've been dealt with and are no longer around.

Once again, if you do not like it, leave!

Yea, you're not getting it mate, my issue, I'll shut-up now.

PS, it was other post (singular) and in the what annoys you thread so it's surely fair and valid to vent there.

Venting is fine. Having a whinge about the forum its posted on, probably not.

Take it to a mechanic, there is only so much that can be done from online if people can't see/hear/feel the problem.

Lol. I felt bad so I went out and grabbed my rear drive shafts. Handbrake off, in N on flat ground and they didn't noticeably move, nothing, so there might be something to that or it could just be a difference from VS to VT IRS.

Maybe just take it in for a balance (cos you'd kick yourself replacing stuff if it were just that) and ask if they can give the arse end a once over.

I,d start by rotating wheels front to rear,if your vibration is gone from the rear and is now felt thru the steering you know what the problem is,either balance or bad saw tooth effect with the tyres,cost nothing to check and rotate,

I like conrod's idea.

Its very likely to be 1 or more wheels out of balance.

Have 17's with 235/45 with bad camber wear, could that be it? My old s pac had the s pac rims and no vibration at 210kph, could be the tires?

The drive shafts needs to have free play other wise they would bind up with suspension travel.

I'd be looking at the tyres ya say they have bad camber wear that would put them out of balance and as the speed gets higher it will affect the car more.and if there that bad I would not put them on the front.
