Vibration at 120

Post by AndriesS »

Yesterday on a really smooth piece of tar I noticed I had a vibration coming from the rear. I've not noticed it at slower speeds yet and it only happens on a trailing throttle. I.e. driving 120 at part throttle I don't feel anything but letting go of the throttle it starts.I quickly checked the U joints with a screwdriver and there was no play. Any ideas?

Hi. Check upper and lower rear suspension arm bushes, rear pan-hard rod bushes while you at it. :think:
