ive experienced this twice now, but it feals like the passenger front wheel was wobbling for a little while. going along a smooth tarmac road at around 60 the wobbliness started and got quite bad i thought. then it sorted itself out. i stopped the car but cannot notice any play in anything around that area. ive had new wheels fitted recently which are balanced properly, but cannot see these causing the problem?

Hi,

jack the car up and wobble the wheel from top to bottom, it shouldn't move. If it does, probably wheel bearing gone.

I've just had mine do this on me, vibration through the wheel at 70, stops when you go above. Was my wheel bearing knackered.

Cheers
Rich
