Hi Everyone
I know this is going to be a hard to answer question as there is so many variables but maybe this has happened to someone before or someone may have some good starting points.
My Ve drives perfect trouble free under about 90klms per hour. Once I hot above 90 to 110 the car shakes a bit like something is a miss. I notice it as soon as I get on the highway and hit 110. I usually set cruise control and you dont actually feel it through the steering wheel but the car shakes like the seat im sitting in you can feel shaking vibrations in it andif you have a bottle of water sitting in the cup holder it shakes pretty bad. I have tried going quicker and the shaking is still there. But just driving around 80klms per hour no shaking whatsoever. It seems to sometimes on the highway go away for a bit but then comes back. When i hit the brakes its fine no shaking on the steering etc it just has me worried as im doing a 12 hour drive next week and the shaking the whole way is really going to piss me off. Both tyres on the front 80 per cent tread rears are worn down pretty bad just above legal limit plan on getting new tyres on the rears on my return. I dont think it would be tyres. Could bad wheel bearings make the car shake a bit like this im guessing if its wheel bearings though wouldnt you feel it through the steering
Thanks
