shake, rattle & roll

Well just steering wheel shake actually. Is it just wheels need balancing or anything more sinister? Car is dead straight under heavy braking - with no hands!

Wheel balancing/flat spotted tyre/wheel bearing(s)/track rod ends/steering column uj's/steering rack/suspension bushes...........could be any one of them. Make sure everything is tight first.

If its just a wheel balance, it will tend to only happen at one particular cruising speed, rather than at all speeds..

Depends on how bad the balance is and how many wheels....

[M@H]

Well technically alright then Steve.. however the odds of knocking all the wheels out of balance in one go without knowing that you'd done it, is a little less likely than shedding a balance weight I would suggest

Cheers,
Matt.

Seems to be constant at various (higher)velocities. Its on a car I`m buying and happy with apart from this.
