Sudden vibratrion in 04 GC
Cruising at 110 kays (about 70mph) my 2004 GC Overland began vibrating - it
felt like (but wasn't) a flat tyre. The vibration, which was quite violent,
didn't stop as the vehicle slowed, but was gone when I next drove it (about
30 minutes later) and has been felt since.
There was a burning smell when the vehicle stopped.
Any suggestions on a possible cause much appreciated.
By the way my GC is a 2.7 litre 5 cylinder diesel which I know you can't get
in the US or Canada, but I think it's only the drive-train that is
different - in all other respects its the same spec worldwide.
Thanks ..ian

Re: Sudden vibratrion in 04 GC
Wheel bearings perhaps ? Do the hubs feel hot / any black oil or grease
coming out ?
