Vibration
Start again in the middle of Refurbishing a 05 plate range rover Overfinch 580s one with the bored out 4.4 BMW engine in it I have a problem with a vibration at all speeds but more noticeable at 50mph fitted a new torque converter about 6 weeks ago problem vibration nearly when but was still there any ideas am thinking in may need a rebuild on the gearbox ;( the people that fitted the torque converter landrover themselves changes the old but not the filter ? Could this be the Culprit or am a been a tad Optimistic ;0)

just a few other ideas ...
motor mounts? tranny mounts? Perhaps a bolt or two left off or not torqued. Does your model have a flex coupler (rubber coupling) at the rear drive shaft? |
Where are you feeling this vibration? In the steering wheel, under the seat? What kind of pitch/frequency is it, high/low? Vibration is a very generic term. I've been chasing a vibration down that nobody can figure out on a Lincoln Aviator. I've taken it to three shops and their diagnosis is always different. Fourth time is a charm...
Is the vibration speed or rpm related? Does it come and go when the gas or brake is applied? |
Hi thanks for the reply ;) the vibration seems to be load dependent let go of the throttle an it goes ;( it's goes thou the whole car but quite bad between 50/60 the cars been plugged in whe been driven everything is working as should ! The only thing I have found is the track rod ends Ar worn but I doubt this is the problem ;(

This sounds quite a bit like U-joints to me.
|
I'd be looking at the rear driveshaft center support bearing,
front lower control arm ball joints, as well as the loose tie rod ends. Bent rims and bad tires wont help either. |
i want to second threalassmikeg's suspicion about tires. i was experiencing uncomfortable vibrations at speeds around 65mph on my '97. checked everything i could check. finally...i checked the tire manufacture dates. hmmm. time for a new set. changed all four tires, and problem solved.
always rule out the tires, wheels, balancing. |
Thanks for replies lads had 4 new proxies put on this car an balanced at land rover everything is good ;) so I knw that's not were the vibration is ;( rear propshaft bearing am right in thinking the one above the fuel tank this has no movement in it at all , the vibration gets worse when the car is put at motorway height on the the suspension setting it Defo got to be some that moves with the suspension still at a loss drives like brand new except this naggin vibration :(
