Default Mild vibrations

felt through the car at high speeds, around 130mph+

I've had all 4 wheels balanced not long ago but it never really cured it. Can anyone shine some light on my problem

I'm talking about the car in my sig.

Cheers lads and lasses

Could be a faulty tyre, damaged wheel as these are not allways picked up from ballencing as ive found out myself. Still worth checking the weights havnt fallen off aswell

Other options are stuff like worn bushes and damaged steering componenets, hope u get it sorted

I doubt it could be a faulty tyre or wheel as they were all brand new when I bought the car and i've not smacked them/excessive curbing/pot holes etc. Not checked the weights so maybe one may have come loose or fallen off.

The car has only done 38k (its just 4 years old, this jan) and has never had a bump (to my knowledge) so that "hopefully" rules out any steering damage of any kind. Bushes however, are known to go early on E46's so that maybe a cause. if so, it'll be polybush time
