Shaking

[MT94]

Hi all I have noticed that when I am going at 70 the rear of the car shakes and gets worse as I get faster not that I exceed the speed limit of course 8) does anyone know of a cause or have anything like this happening to their car I haven't had the car long so I'm not sure on when it was last balanced and had tracking done but this feels a bit strong to just be one or both of those things. Any info would be much appreciated.

Start with the simple stuff. Get all the wheels checked and balanced.

Do you have run flat tyres ?? How old are the tyres, has it been sat for a long time in the same spot ??

I will get my wheels balenced once I'm back from holiday and as far as I know it could have been sat for a month or so before I bought it and it is still on runflats which look almost new. Hoping this won't be a massively expensive issue that I'll have to deal with already.

Have the rear springs been replaced? - a weakness on E85/86

Hi marlon yeah I took all the wheels off for a wheel arch clean and an inspection of the brakes suspension and brake lines two weeks ago thinking I may see something causing it but all seemed ok plus the springs seem in pretty good shape.
