Juddering...to a whole new level

[Valiriel]

Heya guys,

It has been a traumatic morning that has left my beloved 'boh' (number plate reads BOH) in the dealers with an issue that they are unsure about .

drove around town to pic up my sister then off to work hit the motorway and bang the car starts juddering at 50mph and got progressively worse as i sped up...now this tells me a wheel/tyre related issue? at 70 the car literally was like a massage chair wacked into overdrive! I checked the wheels all seemed okay but my dealers are 'unsure' where the problem lies :/.

I also have the squeaky drives seat issue so u can imagine that mixed with strong juddering vibrations through the car :P

Car specs are below what do you guys think?

9k miles 90bhp e-hdi 4 months old

Dont worry appears to have been mud! It has been wet here and the ground around static caravan we r stayin is like slop and apparantly it had frozen on the inside of the alloy and alot on wheel arch causing the issue so a quick pressure wash and done.

Moral of the story if your offroading your ds, willingly or not remeber to wash your wheel arches and inside ur wheel often!

Thank goodness for that sounded a lot more serious this morning. Bet you feel a little bit silly? But glad it was something trivual.

I think she deserves a thorough good valeting for that.:redface:

Honestly i was expecting a massive problem so huge relief it was a stupid thing . i do feel like a bit of an idiot but hey . She will receive a really good wash and wax this weekend to make up for it and im parking her on the site car park now to avoid further mishaps

Glad it was nothing more serious

Unusual colour combination you've got there, I've seen the Botticelli Blue with White roof and White with Botticelli Blue roof, but not the combo you've got. Any chance you could post some pics
