Hey all...

I'm slowly getting frustrated as my local MR T seem unable to sort the balancing out on my LC4. I've handed my LC to them twice now and still I get steering wheel judder around 60-80mph... Is it really that difficult to ballance these wheels or could there be another issue causing the steering wheel judder I'm experiencing????

Regards
Rob

I'm suffering similar - re-balanced shortly after delivery (2003) still juddered at around 60/70mph.  Put up with it and eventually rotated front to back to balance tyre wear .... no judder.  New tyres fitted a couple years later and re.balanced - judder back!  In October rotated tyres again - judder gone.  Rolling Eyes

At least I'm not the only one then... however putting up with it just ends up causing more wear and tear on the suspension etc...
Going to call Mr T today to let them know... 60 to 70 mph is quite uncomfortable, 80 - 90 I start to feel unsafe... I know 80-90 is over what we are allowed to do over here... but on the continent I'd be in the slow lane doing those speeds...
Will see what MR T say...

Rob
