    Vibration

    Having checked all vibration threads I have a different problem. 94 Disco 3.9V8i. My vibration starts at about 45 kph, I've changed the front prop shaft cv joints as they were knackered but there is still a slight vibration. It does get worse the faster I go, any ideas guys?

    wheel bearings
    steering damper
    swivel preload....I would have this checked if you have just done your cv's
    I think warn input shaft, gearbox can cause vibs too..but don't quote me on that one

    Your front propshaft shouldn't have CV's (we call it a double cardin joint in Aus - or DC joint). I assume you also checked the rear shaft too? Check the uni and the rubber coupling. It may also be worth checking everything is tight, located properly and there are no missing balance weights. Likewise with the handbrake drum - all bolts that you can see. Also, check your wheels as this is typical - check for missing or shifted balance weights and they are clean on the inside also - as mud etc will throw them right out of balance. Check also for damaged tyre tread/carcass and that all of the wheel nuts are tight.

    d1 doesn't have a DC.....

    I totally read his post above wrong..

    I thought he meant he changed the propshaft and the CV's becasue they were knackered.
