When to act urgently
Stop if vibration becomes severe or follows an impact or tyre damage.
Common possible causes
- Wheel imbalance
- Tyre damage
- Brake disc variation
- Worn steering or suspension components
What you can safely check
- Note the speed range
- Check tyre pressures when safe
- Note whether braking changes it
What not to attempt
Avoid dismantling safety-critical, pressurised, hot or high-voltage systems without suitable training and equipment. Generic symptoms are not enough to choose a repair.
How a workshop diagnoses it
A technician will confirm the symptom, review relevant vehicle information and use physical, electronic or measured tests as appropriate. The aim is to separate the underlying cause from related symptoms.
