The clutch pedal on my Mini has developed a constant vibration. It got worse after inflating the tyres to the proper pressure. I have rechecked all the wheel nuts with a torque wrench and this has made some improvement, however a vibration is still present through the pedal and the foot rest.
Is it caused by the bushes on the subframe becoming worn or a driveshaft issue or something else? Any ideas / suggestions appreciated. Thanks

not to shure tbh best thing to do is take it to a local dealer or garage if out of warranty

it could be the bearing jack up the car and spin the wheel and you should here if the bearing is away that will causes vibration

As stoney says, try jacking the car up, try to "rock" the wheel by holding top and bottom of the wheel to check for play in the wheel bearing, see if you can feel any play in the drive shafts, a small oil leak at the diff side would indicate a possible problem, really too many things to advise, sorry :thud:
