vibration at low speeds 20-30mph   Printable Version Mini Cooper Forum >> General Mini Cooper Forums >> General Tech >> vibration at low speeds 20-30mph Page: [1] Login Message << Older Topic   Newer Topic >> vibration at low speeds 20-30mph - 5/12/2008 12:35:57 PM    rob_engineer   Posts: 2 Joined: 11/10/2007 Status: offline I bought my wife a 2005 standard mini with stock 15" wheels & tires.  On a smooth road at 20 mph we feel a slight vibration.  It gets faster as the speed picks up, but then at highway speeds we don't really notice the vibration.  The car has 33K miles on it.  I assume it could be a bad tire, or imbalanced wheel, but I am suprised that the time we feel it most is at relatively slow speeds.  Any other things can cause this? Thanks.  Rob.
