[QUOTE=Kev0607;2940408]Engine mounts... ?

If they're worn, they can transfer vibration to the steering.[/QUOTE

So you've checked for bent alloys and inspected all the tyres for bulges or flat spots?

Are you sure all the weights for balancing are still on all the wheels? They can fall off.

:speechless-smiley-4 Thank you for nag so far can't believe both alloys go absolutely out of shape , so two new on order now wait and see.

You must have been hitting potholes or driving up high kerbs too much for them to go out of shape. Make sure the tyres are properly inflated, so the tyre takes most of the impact and not the alloy.

Alloys don't just go out of shape on their own.

I think you need to bring it to a garage for them to properly diagnose it. Otherwise, you could end up buying more parts without fixing the problem. Its wasting money.

That’s my suggestion.

to be fair the left just how I say before just bearings and lower arms if that not sorted then it is left gearbox , nothing to check at the garage I my self in the garage. But this is unique.:angry_smile:

A friends car had a vibration and was tearing his hair out trying to find the cause. He drove round to my house and as we walked to the car I noticed a bulge on the inside wall of the rear tyre. It was just lucky the way the car was parked that I noticed it. He bought a new tyre and the vibration disappeared.

It may not help you in the case, but may help someone else.
