wheel bearings

Tracking can cause this to, get it checked.

Never heard of wheels bearings causing it though :?

[Aragorn]

probably got no spigot rings fitted and the wheels arent centered

[w_wall_2001]

as aragon said, prob no sprigot rings, mine used to do it, get them at any alloy places for ?10-?15

[Matt Nova]

aye check spigots

the alloys aren't bent are they?

[w_wall_2001]

when you get them balanced they can tell if the wheels buckled

cant believe this one.....

was running low on time today so i popped me motor into kwik fit to get the balance checked..i returned 20 mins later to be told the car had no spigots in the wheels centre but that the wheels were ok in balance, so i shot to a nearby auto shop got some and returned . After exchanging a tenner the erk there fitted these plastic inserts and told me my pressure were way off ( i use 30 psi all round ) .
On driving home i gave the car some stick at 50mph it shook like a jelly ,so this evening a work mate called a pal who deals in tyres ect to check my motor over.
Not only were the wheels WELL OUT the bloody tyre pressure was 45 psi !!
The bloke sorted the balance on the front tyres and returned the pressure to normal.Different car altogether back to normal...
" Cant get get quicker than a kwik fitter " - yeah right - avoid the ones in bedford at all cost :evil: :evil:

45psi lmfao

that's a good one. just goes to show he didn't have a clue.

it should be roughly 30psi, i think most tyres say something around that. the nnova manual says 25psi however (Standard wheels)

LOL, kwik fit.
I have heard some mental stories, like 16 yr old school leavers jacking peoples cars up under the fuel tank to take the wheel off :o
WTF :roll:
