Urgent help needed.......

[Buzz]

Posting this on here instead of a land rover forum because i want advice not 1000 opinions LOL

 

I've had my Discovery down in a quarry today, i've thoroughly washed all the sand and mud off but i have a horrific vibration from the front end felt through the steering wheel.

 

It starts at 40 mph backs of at 50 mph and comes in good and proper and makes the whole vehicle shake around 60 mph.

 

Underneath it's virtually identical to a defender so all advise welcome.

 

I'm thinking i've damaged the panhard rod ?

Distorted propshaft?

Thats why you posted it here, you don't get quality advice like that on a Landrover forum!

I know nothing about them but exactly the same thing happened to my missus car, turns out there was a bulge in the front tyre.

 

I'm sure you've checked them anyway.

I know you dont want a million suggestions but this wont take long and is easy to cross out, check the side walls on the tires could have a very small egg in. Had this on one of our trucks only a very small egg (hardly see it )but made it vibrate loads.

Have you hit anything hard?

deffo classic propshaft by the sound of it

As mentioned above, check the tire walls, I have also had it from a lump of clay weddged on the inside of the wheel rim.

Tyres look ok, brand new, well inflated, wheel nuts all appear tight. I only noticed this after washing it on the way to the gym and there is not alot i can do in the dark but i have to be in Manchester for 07:30 tomorrow...bugger.

 

I hope it's not the propshaft !
