Default vibration

2003 s type - I was wearing out my tires on the inside and took it to a aligning shop they told me to change the control harms that was done about 6 months ago and seems to have fix the problem.

since the shimmy has stopped because I also bought new tires now you can feel a vibration in the steering wheel. It vibrates on a cycle - vibrate stop and vibrate and stop - real fast like over and over again. Its not like you can't drive the car just very slight but annoying.

Has anyone had something similar.

Thanks
Rocky

That can be a real tough one for people on a forum to diagnose. I have fought vibration issues on many cars. Lucky for me none of them have been a result of bad components like suspension parts or bearings. That said, without testing a bunch of stuff you'll be hard pressed to find it.

I was thinking maybe a bearing but I bought the control harms used it could also be that or it could be they were installed incorrectly but you are right it is a tough one I will probably just live with it.
