Hi,
Will start with a breif history.
Initially had to change both front wheel bearings, left one failed. Then a month after right hand side did the same.
This fixed the noise problem i had from bearings, but then about a month after the last bearing change and driving on the motorway the whole car began to shake violently. So bad that i had to pull off and did a quick inspection. Couldnt find anything wrong, went back onto motorway and it drove fine and did for about a week until it did it again but this time not as bad shaking. I got the two front wheels balanced and the shaking reduced, but its still there. Have noticed initially that if i was motorway driving above 50 and on a slight incline i would notice the shake. i can feel it through the steering wheel a little. i also think that it has pulled over to the right on two occassions. this is also intermittant so bard to pin dow. was going to change the two front brake discs and pads.
Now for the advice. Do you think i'm on the right track with the brake discs, possibly even brake caliper sticking. or could it be something else?
