    Driving a 2007 kid ceed 1.6 crdi, when I'm driving on the motorway and go a speed in excess of 120km (120km-140km) a small vibration comes in the steering wheel, this vibration can be intermittent but it only happens in a speed in excess of 120km and will stop when speed is reduced

    Any ideas why this happens

    Most likely wheels need balancing.

    An unbalanced wheel or tyre is the most likely cause.Any tyre centreshine should be able to rebalance them for you.

    As above a wheel or both wheels need balancing. You my have a buckle either

    Thanks lads, now that ye say it I noticed that both front wheels are wearing uneven, both wearing on the inside.

    That uneven wear is alignment. You will need to fix alignment and get new tyres which will be balanced when fitted
