I had the car serviced last week and had the oil & oil filter changed as well as the brake fluid. Now while I drive to uni the car starts to vibrate approaching 110kph where the vibration is the strongest, it stops completely if I hit 120kph.

Any ideas on what could be causing the vibration or any further tests I could do to diagnose the problem if I haven't given enough information?

Thanks guys.

Doesn't seem to be any of the above. The car was running fine up until the service. They also rotated the tyres. If the tyre wear is uneven on the front tyres would it cause this issue?
What if the brake fluid is over filled?

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to cbauto again.

Run your hand over the front tyres, can you feel flat spots ? if this is the case you should also be able to hear tyre noise.


You would not notice problem tyres as much on the rear of the car however when rotated to the front of the car the problem of bad tyres becomes evident.

I will caress my tyres when I get home. I'll also probably replace the tyres anyway cause they've probably had it.
