CUPRA R 210 Vibration

[Davgor1873]

i bought my cupra in january and noticed a vibration coming from the front mainly when im braking but also when doing speeds over 90mph , i had the front breaks checked and was told they were good but it continued so i got the discs skimmed , i thought it was better but it started again this time my mechanic told me it was the anti roll bar link and replaced but it still continues ... any ideas??? thanks

sounds like the hub maybe damaged and causing the discs to warp or keep warping. try and get the run out on the hubs checked 1 of the flanges maybe bent and causing a shake when braking or at high speeds

Are you sure its not wheel balance?
Was that Bannermans in Inverness that you were dealing with?

 

[Davgor1873]

was hawco in inverness had 3mnth warranty but they were useless and its now out of warranty... they told me they had checked the tracking might put it into somewhere else have you dealt with bannermans . ??

i had this at higher speeds and braking etc and mine turned out to be balancing, when i had my tyres changed it went
