Hello all,
New Legacy 3.0R estate owner here. I own quite a few cars ( nsx, integra, delta evo1, 850R, ... ) and bought this for cheap for my GF but what happened is that I actually use it all the time because I discovered how such a good car it is.
The car has 130.000km, drive very well except for a bad steering wheel vibration.
Symptom : The vibration itself is the steering wheel going left to right by a very small amount but enough to shake my whole arm.
- The car had an alignement and new front tyres before i bought it.
I brought it to a mechanic, who apparently re-balanced tyres.
Vibration is still here but a bit less.
- Steering wheel vibrate from 110 to 140km/h not below and not above.
- Vibration stops sometimes when I take long corners at those speed and then appear again when the road straightens.
- Vibration reduces sometimes 80% on some road surfaces ( highway here in France are some of the best in the world and the brand new surfaces seams to reduce even more the vibration )
- The car is going to the right at highway speed above 100kmh, below it goes straight.
- Rear tyres are Michelin that are 70% and that are 10yo. Fronts are new.
- I now have brake vibration when i brake hard at highway speeds. Can be felt through the steering wheel mostly and only above 100km/h
I am not familiar at all with those Legacy so if anyone already had this, i would gladly take some advices.
Thanks a lot !
