Im getting a little vibration recently at 80+mph (private track etc ), recently had front brake pads, discs and braided hoses done.

Suspect tracking issue or tyre pressure which I will check as soon as poss, but has anyone else come across this problem before?

BTW, classic MY00 uk turbo, pretty much standard on 16's

Cheers

Presumebly you mean through the steering wheel if so get the wheels balanced

3.Also could be tyres damage.

What condition are your rear tyes in? - Not sure how it applies to a scoob , being 4WD - but certainly in a rear wheel drive car vibration will kick in when the tyres get to a certain level of wear

Pete,
Not had a proper look to be honest, I know I will need new tryes in the next 1-2k miles but didnt realise tyre wear could also cause vibration. I will check when the suns up next and check tread etc, anything specific I should be looking for?

A steering wheel vibration that appears about motorway speeds is usually a rear wheel out of balance.
