get better than a Kwik-Fit fitter! Kwik-Fit F@nny more like! Got tyres changed, got vibration through steering when doing 70. Took the car back, asked them to balance it again, WORSE vibration, now at 50. I'm getting SERIOUSLY pi$$ed off! :mad::mad::mad:

What did you guys do to fix it? Keep going back?

I went back once and got them to re-do it. I simply assumed it would be fixed and thought nothing more of it. UNfortunately, like most people, i dont have the time to fart about with wheels during the day so I didnt bother trying out the wheels at 70mph. It was a week or two later that i realised the problem was still there but i just couldnt be arsed going back. If they cant get it right the second time round, they never would have.

He's only in Aberdeen during the week, the Asbo allows him back to Glasgie at weekends :D

ASBO meaning A Significantly Better Offer. ;)

I am indeed in Abz during the week and for the odd weekend mate. I've been back to Kwik Fit and, whilst I haven't been able to take it for a motorway blast yet, the little blat to work seemed to show that the problem might be sorted the third time around. Fingers crossed!

So that's why you put so much mileage on the car, and you say the back ache's from the driving!:p;)
