hi guys

my car is doing this weird thing where is wobbles in a low gear at high revs and also happens in low revs on high gears? most of the time on the motorway not so apparent on streets. any idea what my problem could be?

Cheers

I had the same problem with my car.. It wobbled and made noises..

My solution maybe is to check your engine mounts they might be loose which needs to be retightened..

How's the tread on your tyres? My dad's car had a bit of camber wear on the right front side, so we rotated it to the back, which solved our wobbly/shuddering problem.

Otherwise...rear wheel alignment maybe? My mate's rear's were once way out of wack so it looked like he was driving half sideways from behind, and when I took his car to like 160km/hr it was wobbling/swaying like shiiiiit lol

thanks lol.


Yeah as dougie said its most likely something with your wheel aligment and balancing.
might want to check tyre pressure and other simple stuff you could be missing.
