juddering at rear of Saab 9-5 - Alebear
There is an odd vibration that is coming from the rear of my SAAB 9-5. I thought that it was probably poor wheel balance, though on inspection at Kwik Fit, it was clear that there were a number of nails in the rear tyres too.
Two new tyres, 4 re-balances and tracking done at that time, and while reduced, the judder is still there. It doesn't seem to be better or worse at any particular speed, though the roads round here are not smooth enough at any point for me to work out what is actually emanating from the car, and what is from the road.
Is there anything else that I ought to be looking at that is obvious? The noise seemed to start just after the most recent dealer service about 3 weeks ago.
