mad shakes at speed...
Im drawing a blank as to why the mk1 shakes madly when at speed. Front wheels are balanced but not sure what else it could be?
Any ideas?
Cheers

not quite the same but a mate of mine had the same problem and had a slight bend in his drive shaft where he slipped with a jack, only felf that over 40
thanks

Make sure the 3 10mm nuts are tight and not loose as this would cause the hub to have movement leading to wheel wobble

I no longer have the Mk1!! I now whizz round in a Black 1990 3dr Mk2 GTi 8v but the roof doesn't fold back when the sun shines

also jack the front up and put it solidly on axle stands and stick it in gear so that the wheels spin up a little, then you can watch them and see if anything is amiss, one of my tyres had a flat spot in which was well noticeable when the wheel was spinning, thats the trouble with not using the car for five odd years ;-)
