Slight vibration

[Trout bum]

discovered a slight vibration when driving recently checked wheel nuts etc it's like I was driving the car with one of the rear windows open if that makes sense not a heavy vibration but annoying vehicle runs perfect except this slight vibration , just passed its first MOT and this is the first outing. Any suggestions folks

tyre imbalance or minor distortion?

 

[tacr2man]

There are reports of resonance being set up by roof vents ?

Just went round the wheel nuts again got a couple of mm tighten on some just ever so slight could this be the issue just enough to cause it think I'll get torque up when I get back home from the weekend just to make sure

Check on the inside of the tyre walls for bulges and distortions and you may have thrown a balance weight, if you can’t find anything you’ll probably have to take the wheels off and look or get them rebalanced...

Drive shaft support bearing on drivers side if a ducato ? Probably same on a peugeot /citroen

Hi Gus-lopez. The drive shaft bearing is a failure now so if it had been motd recently...someone had not done his/her job properly!!!
If its when travelling as some have mentioned..possibly a tyre situation? Personally be surprised if its a balance issue? That normally shows up beforehand . I would have thought it was noticed whilst you have been travelling? A tyre problem would be a possibility purely because it would not show up on a mot unless it was obvious to the technician..

This, I noticed a very slight vibration on our way to Chester this year, nothing to harsh but nonetheless it was there.

It was this..
