hi chaps,

 

its not steering wheel judder as the brakes are fine. i get a slight judder from the rear end when cruising but its intermittent which is quite confusing. Its most prominent in 4th at about 2000rpm and feels like im driving over very close together lines on the road. when i accelerate, it seems to disappear and seems to be linked to what rpm in what gear but i could be wrong...

 

any help would be great although im not too worried atm - anything i should check?

 

cheers

If your feeling it through your seat/floor , then its Drivetrain judder. If its a fault that has developed on its own then it will be either Sagging rear gearbox mount,. Propshaft centre bearing or worn Propshaft UJ's.

 

if the drivetrain has recently been removed for any reason, then its probably that the propshaft has been incorrectly put back together - usually becuase of not aligning the two halfs of the prop together so its out of balance or putting the bearing carrier washers in the wrong place.

cheers legrath,

 

is there anything i can check when i get home? or will this kind of problem be invisible to the naked eye? if anyone in the bournemouth area fancies helping my diagnose the problem i would be very grateful....

Tyre flat spots?

dont think its a tyre problem as its not constant
