Omega General Help / Re: Vibration at 25 mph

Thanks for the suggestions. Although it sounds a little strange, Stranger things have happened to me in the past so I'll give these a try. I'm quite certain it isn't engine related because I've slipped her in neutral at 28 and revved the moter a little. This had no effect whatsoever. I guess it could be auto box related but I don't know. I've fitted four new Continentals at 125 notes a time and had them computer balanced so I don't think it would be wheel related either. Incidentally can someone please explain how to place a pic of my Omega with my message like others do.
Thanks

Omega General Help / Vibration at 25 mph
« on: 09 June 2007, 00:02:11 »
Hi
I'm a brand new member to the forum. I've been seriously in love with the Omega for many years but for one reason or another I've never actually owned one ...until now that is. Yes, I've bought a black '52 reg CD 2.6 V6 with 33k on the clock, previously owned from new by an elderly gentleman who had a rather severe physical disability. The car is a real beauty, immaculate inside and out with full service history by a well respected Vauxhall dealership. I purchased the car for what I believe to be a fair price and everyone is happy. I've had one or two very minor problems fixed and fitted it with 4 new Continental tyres. There is just one problem which I cannot find an answer to and I was hoping that some of the members might know. On early, cold mornings, when the car reaches 25 mph. (I drive very carefully) she starts vibrating through the steering wheel and I can feel it through the seat too. The whole car vibrates until 30 mph when it smoothes out again. after a few miles the vibration is no longer there whatever speed I'm doing. My first gut feeling was the universal joint being a bit tight/stiff when cold. Has anyone experienced this? if so what can I do please. :Aussipete
