1 , C OND ITION
Steeringwheel startsvibratingwhen cruisingat around8Okmihor applyingbrakesand
to over 90km/h,ordeceleratedto
vibrationwould not stop until speed was accelerated
under60k m/h . t'

2 . CA U S E
Suspensionand steeringsystemwere so sensitiveto vibrationcausedby wheelimbalance
and such .
Becauseof this,the steeringvibrationbecameapparentespeciallywhen wheelimbalance
betweenrightand leftbecame "oppositephase".

3 . C ORR E C TION
. By improving spring characteristicof front leading arm bushing, vibration
on frontsuspension
characteristic
transmission has beenchanged.
. Shim has been set up as an optionalpart in order to adjustfrictionof steering
