Hi Chaps,

I have a problem currently with my SAAB. I get wobble back through the steering wheel and also through the car! This happens at any speed but is most noticable at low speeds. The wheels have all been balanced and tyre pressures checked and still no joy. I even had two of them changed as they were near the end of their life but no luck. Any other ideas?

Hi, Thanks for replies so far. They are all original wheel and the problem came on sudenly during the cold weather. I did condider one of the wheels may be warped but would this show up on a balance? It's not any worse on braking or accelerating and all wheels were taken off balanced and put back on last week so I don't think it's loose nuts!

The spigot thing sounds interesting but not sure how to check, any idea? also the drive shaft and bearings but this will have to be done by garage after all other ideas have failed.

Any more?

Thanks Rich and Doogz. Not ice because it's plus 9 outide now and still doing it, but the warped wheel could be it then. I havent hit anything though so who knows. I think it sounds too much for me to investigate so will drop it to garage next week.

Ta very much to all.
