Hi gang
Just got myself a 2008 120 D4D 6sp and having wobble troubles, yes I searched and didn't see anything worded as I'm about too.
Basically 80km+ get slight steering wheel wobble (straight line) but its what happens on left and right bends that's my main issue
The Wobble is magnified to the point that I can feel the vibrations thru the floor and pedals.
Left bends are more noticeable then the right bends. Judging by the frequencies/pulsing of the wobbles it appears tyre/bearings related as it is quite fast pulsing I can feel.
Things done:
*4 mechanics gone over it and found nothing wrong but felt the wobbles. Suggested balance & alignment
*Balanced and rotated tyres
*Alignment. Didn't get the before and after sorry.
Now the balance and alignment altered the vibrations in straight line (slightly better) but amplified the left and right cornering and is now worse.
I haven't received my manual yet so I don't know what's what under there atm so I'd thought I'd throw it out there too see if anyone knows possible starting points.
I personally will inspect bearings, rack play, tie rods, shaft play and all the bush's.
Any help/ideas appreciated.
