Wobble/rumble/vibration/flat Tyre Feel? What Is The Problem?


Recommended Posts

Hi, i usually hang out in the LS forum as our RX is more of our daily than my pride and joy!

anyway we have an 04/54 RX300 sel and its started to develope a funny wobble/vibration from what feels like the rear passenger side wheel area.

the first time it did it i thought the tyre had gone as that was the feeling it made, like driving over a rumble strip? it sends a vibration right though the car!

i got out and checked and found no obvious problems, so set off again and all was fine!

since then its done it once or twice again. it doesn't happen at a certain speed, its just random.

it is going in for its service next month but would like to try and find out the problem and see if i can sort it(cheaper) myself.

its got 44k on the clock with a full history and this is the only issue we've ever had in the 2 years of ownership.

any ideas?

thanks

Matt

it was a siezed parking brake cable on one side. apparently it happens and occasionally grabs the disc while driving causing the jubber effect. dont undersatnd why it siezed tho as my wife always uses it, not like me in my ls400 who never uses it! mind mine is older so much better quality;)
