on the way back from scotch corner meet.

the car started to vibrate badly when i went over 100mph

any suggestions

thought maybe hicas,,,prop bearing or bad misfire

shat myself,felt like it was going to blow up.

does anyone know where i can get it onto a rolling road, to see whats happening

if anyone reckons they can work it out by taking a spin with me,i would gladly travel to your place (not too far if poss) :cry:

:rofl: Its RED.........sorry bud had to be said....:x:

 

No mate dont think it is prop bearings as these tend to show up at about 30-50mph...

Where was it coming from, Back or front of the car and did you feel it through the steering wheel..??

Could be a number of things.....lets see if we can narrow it down Tizer.

check your HICAS link arms & bushes

Also check all ya wheel nuts, and ya tyres for wearing on the inside of the tread patten. Might be wheel bearings :(

:rofl: Its RED.........sorry bud had to be said....:x:

its a vigourous vibration from the whole car, not through steering,more like through the seat.

tyres and wheels ok

it does tend to vibrate 30-50ish from cold,but a quick blast soon gets rid of that

i have got a hicas fluid leak (small) but cant get car far enough off ground to have a good look

no uneven wear on tyres

like i say its not a small shake like you would expect from tyres or wheels etc

its a bloody scary (entering earths atmosphere) vibration

 

does that help you ??? :confused:

Sounds like the propshaft bearing rubber needs replacing, had mine done a few months back now cos i had the same symptoms. Good luck bud :D

was thinking it may be those bling nuts you sold me at newark

(possibly unbalanced the car) :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

:slap: like i said mate its RED...........:tongue: but think it is prop bearing rubber tho :(

I agree prop shaft

Also check the rear g/box mount while your under there! ;)
