Hope someone can offer some advice,

My 206 1.4hdi has developed a vibration which appears to be coming from the rear of the car but it only occurs when over 50mph. I would have thought that if the isue were at the front of the car i would feel the vibration through the steering wheel but that is not the case.

I have jacked up all 4 wheels to check for any play and i cannot find any. My irst thoughts are to get tracking and wheel balancing done does that sond right?

cheers

checked tyres for uneven tyre wear?

Also could be a bearing

You might not be able to tell by looking at them. Check the wheel for any play and while it's on the jack swap the wheels about.

I'd say wheel balance, probably thrown a weight off.
