Hi Guys here's a quick run down of the problem. Needed 2 front tyres for my freelander so got them changed informed the garage to change them round fronts to rear. when i picked it up the tyres hadnt been changed the tyre man said the tread was the same front and back so he left it. after about 3 days and 15 mins into driving when turning corners started getting a vibration threw the the whole 4x4 took it to a garage who said the centre bearings had failed he wanted £350.00 but being a bit of a mechi myself me and a friend changed them out marked every thing out i u do. but still had the problem so i took it to a diffrent garage who said the rear bushin had failed so said to him to do that and while he was at it change the oil and transmittion fluid £165.00 later. still have the same problem my question is ive been told some 4x4 tyres r no good on the freelander could this be the problem. The tyres fitted were MARSHAL ROAD VENTURE 225/55/R17 97H.
PLEASE PLEASE HELP

never trust a **** tyre fitter - he dont know ought :mad:
 
will be changing them round in the morning. its also going back to the garage to see if there is anything else i can do the centre bearings on the prop shaft were shot and the back bush was split. thats why we changed them. have now change tyres round and change the rear support bushings. but still have the problem. can i remove the propshaft and stil use the FL. TD4 2004 HSE 90.000 0n the clock. have removed the propshaft and still have the vibration front to middle drivers side.
