Just back from our annual drive to Spain. 2500 miles and the car (2014 VTR) was brilliant except for one thing ...... .
I'm getting a vibration from the front end over 70.
I was having problems with it last year as well and before leaving had the wheels balanced and tracking done but it happened again.
This year I had new tyres fitted a month or so before we went and they set the tracking and balanced the wheels.
Yet once on the French motorway it started again at anything over 70. Lovely and smooth up to that speed but awful over it.
Not a worry over here as I rarely manage to get to that speed on our motorways but very annoying in France and Spain.
I wonder whether it may be an aerodynamic issue as it feels a little like the turbulent air I get around my crash helmet on the bike but I've not heard of anyone else with the problem and the dealers seem at a loss to explain it.
Any ideas?
