Quick question: My steering wheel vibrates at 80km and by 120km its shaking hella bad - its had a wheel alignment done but its still like this and its really annoying! Anyone know whats causing it?

Wheel Balance or your nuts are loose.

Cheers

Ken

Thanks Ken will do. I prolly would have used the RAC if you hadn't said that...so good timing.

Cheers.

The RAC will spend more time doing the

* rip in seat , mark on rear squab , dirty hoodlining type report which any schmuck can see by using there eyes.

The important , check front end play , compression or leakage test, check syncros and oil cond test are bypassed cos they are baffled by the lack of V and too many camshafts.

Well then they must have got it wrong then.

Have you hit any kerbs or suddenly heard a loud bang not long after the wheels were balanced ?

cheers

    • Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"
    • I'm happy with the Lsailt unit that I put in, it puts full Android on the top screen so you can run whatever Nav and other Apps you want, while still existing inside the factory functionality like automatic reverse cams, audio input switching, retains factory bluetooth etc. Not cheap and the install was moderate (not simple, not hard) Yours is a V36 not V37 though right?
    • Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT  
    • Haha good old Letterkenny! If you're looking for another great english canadian comedy, I strongly recommend Trailer Park Boys.
