'Pulse' at steering wheel ? - Page 2

I have a slow puncture on the rear drivers tyre. I check it everyday before going out but I am going to get two new tyres and put the fronts on the rear then have it tracked.

A "pulse" on the steering, is usually caused by either a buckled wheel or a tyre with a damaged sidewall!

Yup, done by my usual garage /tyre supplier.

...and we have a winner

Changed both front tyres on Thursday and we are running straight and true with no more pulsing . Twisted carcass on one tyre .

just out of interest I found ALL four bolts holding the top of the steering shaft loose on mine when I realised that could move the wheel from side to side it is worth having a check 'it was only a slight movement,but when the boltsa where tightened it made a heck of a difference.regards
