juddering

**monkey_boy** · Tuesday 8th August 2006, 10:08

I have a strange judder from the front of my C70.

Its constant whilst driving and gets worse with speed. I recently had new tyres and they where balanced with about 12psi in them. Would this mean after correcting the pressure they are out of balance? The stearing wheel doesnt shake but i can feel the judder through the floor and under my seat!

The roads i drive are not the best and it does change with road surface. It also lessens when i turn.

I will of course get the tyres re-balanced but anyone have another thought?

Make sure your wheel nuts are tight enough - we jest but Martin K found 4 of his almost out when he had similar noises

"Make sure your wheel nuts are tight enough"

A quick question that I was wondering about asking and this seems to be a good opportunity. With regards to tightness of wheel nuts, what is the recommended torque setting? (I wanted to check my nuts, so to speak!)
