Thread: Bad body vibration in my new perentie.

I would have thought though if it was a wheel balance issue you would have had the vibration there from Day 1.

Good luck, Dave

could be that a wheel weight got thrown off when he was driving at 110.

try and stay at 100 or less. You'll find the noise and fuel consumption is much better at that speed than 110, which is almost the max speed for a GS.

Well it seems that I wasn't very thorough when checking the drive shafts. Had another check yesterday and found a worn Uni Joint on transfer end of front prop shaft. I think this car will be a good learning experience for me. Thanks for everyone's advice.
