Click to expand...

meant to say, that was of course AFTER wheel balancing, changing and checking all the bearings, disbelieving looks from FIL as i tried to explain it......
i keep finding problems with my disco that as an ex raf mechanic he's never heard of, andd therefore don't exist until we find a solution to it..

Even the bloke at AL said it sounded strange...

Could be a buggered tyre even?

I know it's weight balanced, but I guess you would still feel a lump or flat spot in a tyre...?
