hi peeps, a little more help. when i'm pottering along on the motorway I find the car vibrates, now i know the steering rack is leaking but this will only make the wheel shake so it has to be something to do with the rear of the car. any suggestions?

this may seem obvious but when was the last time you had your wheels aline'd

Check your intake bellows arent cracked, mine wobbled particulary at idle and this was the cause.

not had the wheels aligned, I dont think that would have anything to do with the car vibrating/wobbling?

Replace your wheels, one at a time, with the spare and see if the syptoms change.
