But after about 2-3 minutes driving the vibration goes away. I dunno if it may even be the road I go on, but doubtful. So I put that down to the dunlops. Got Michelin Pilot Precida tyres on the rear on the weekend and the vibration was slightly less. Maybe when I get rid of the front dunlops, all would be solved. BTW the Michelins are bloody amazing. very very very grippy in the dry Oh and no noise from them. Very quiet tyres. All that said, I don't seem to have low speed vibrations when turning, although sometimes when I drive in to my garage, slightly downhill and a little turn I do feel a slight split second vibration, but that's the only time I seem to experience it and even then not all the time.

Taking it to FORD tomorrow! Give it a day or two. Mine was the same after getting some fixes done, went away the next day.

Makes a real loud noise and vibrates. Is this normal? and is there a known fix for it? Its also audible clearly inside and outside the car when parking.
