hi guys ,got a small problem thats really annoying,ive a slight steeringwheel shake at about 70-80 ,ive had the wheels balanced 3 times and still there,had some work done by zen garage last month ,and while they had it told them about the prob ,and they checked the rack and steering ujs etc and couldnt find a prob,but its still there, just wondered if anybody had any suggestions,iam at a bit of a brick wall ,could it be something like bushes etc ,but i would have thought zen would have spotted that? what do you guys think cheers. :headvswal

mine does the same, just put brand new wheels on and it still does it

it really sucks ive just fitted a new prop bearing so the car is nice and smooth except for the shake drives me mad,proberbly something small but usually there the hardest to find!

Brakes Binding when hot? 4 wheel allignment if you have Hicas? front wheel allignment if

not?

Tension rod bushes?-mine does this and I know mine are fubar!

check your rear ball joints off the hicas arms.. my left one is fooked and it does the same thing at the same speed.. so im fitting new to both arms this week.

had new hicas arms and rack done at zen garage ast month ,but i do need to get 4 wheel alignment done,but martyn at zen said alignment wouldnt give you the wheel shake, so iam thinking tension rod bushes,cheers guys, will get them checked out ,if they are gone do you recommend poly or standard?

I'm fitting poly,but there is an issue about this,best way is to fit adjustable arms-no more bushes! ;)

quick question re the wheel shake. because the Zed has hicas, would improperly balanced rear wheels be a factor in this?
