Ok so done approx 1000 miles in my p38 now and i have to say it has not missed a beat engine wise an although there are a couple more things that dont work (headlight wipers and the passenger side mirror don't go back to normal position after putting into drive from reverse) I have to say I am very imppressed.
However bank holiday weekend did about 200 miles and noticed towards the end of the journey i was getting a vibration that was comming in about 50mph slightly worse at 80 but nothing much more.
had all 4 wheels aligned and ballanced, still there. checked all breaks no sticky caliper or hot spots / disc wear. I have swapped the prop over with another p38 where there was no vibration and this did not cure it either
It almost seems to come and go. I have read up on some topics re prop shaft bush any other reasons why this could be happening.
any thoughts or recomendations of who i might take it to in the colchester / essex area that is not up for ripping me off would be mucho appreciated
