Default XC60 vibrating over 70mph

Don't know if it has always done this and I have only noticed it now but when I start going over 70 mph I can feel a slight vibration that gets more the faster you go.

Not experienced this but you'll have to do all the basic checks like tyre balancing, stepping on rear tyres and a general check of bushings, rear trailing arm bushes get tired over time

What's the year and mileage on your XC60

These days, I'm too chicken to drive over 70 due to the electronic surveillance of our motorways.............so probably not the most qualified to comment!!

Best first step would be to get the wheel balancing checked, if the vibration isn't coming through the steering wheel then it may be the rear wheels that need balancing.

Yes, first stop tyre place, out f balance, or maybe even an imperfection in the tyre has developed. Would do it sooner than later.
