    I think my drive shaft needs balancing, after about 60mph I get waves of shaking though the car. Where could I get that done in Dublin?

    Thanks

    Thanks very much :)

    No, I'm not sure, but I've always had the issue and over time I've

    Had four new tyres & balancing no change
    Changed front spindles and bearings, no change
    It only occurs over 60
    Vibrations travel from one end of the car to the other in waves

    Does this sound like drive shaft?

    Replying to my own post,

    I rung drive shaft services, talked to them, they said it is 80euro to get a drive shaft balanced, but said normally with the american cars, the issue would be a worn joint. So I might take the drive shaft out and have a look, see whats loose.
