Minor vibration through steering at speed

[agy]

All owner say their car is perfect, but when I try i find defect and help they to recognise. One can be little other very big

Here in Aquitaine, once a English kingdom or was it the other way round.

Hmmm.. it's complicated.. IIRC we "owned" it for about 300 years from 1152

Oddly enough - I'm currently reading The Aquitaine Progression by Robert Ludlum.

All are the same problem. One more or less of other. I can show you how to control. But there s not official solution. Car is constructed very very very bad.

Yes, I saw it on 2 other vehicles, is there anything else I could do?

Hi Dear MG Users,
I just got my MG4 Luxury (64 kWh battery). There is little bit steering wheel vibration at freeway speeds (120-125 kph) even after wheel balancing process. Is there anybody has a suggestion or idea to solve this issue?

I have the same. Couldn't get it resolved. I have gotten used to it now and does not feel it's a problem

The wheels and tyres might be perfectly balanced ..... but are the plastic wheel trims ? There might be a few examples which have thicker plastic at one edge and that becomes noticeable at higher speeds.
Try driving at highway speeds with them removed and see if there is a difference.

Is it new. If so they suffer from sitting for prolonged periods in storage and creating a 'flat spot' that resolves in time. Mine had it, got worried but it resolved after a while ( weeks and miles ) - all good now though, very pleased over all. Hope you enjoy it.

For the XPower vibration, changing the tyre pressures to slightly higher than recommended and putting a few thousand miles of wear on the tyres can help to reduce the vibration

With summer tyres I always get vibration at over 100km/h but with winter tyres never. I always balance my tyres so it is most likely a tyre runout issue.

Good idea. I'm gonna try. Ultimately, plastic wheel covers can also have balance that effects the overall balance of tyres. Thanks a lot.
