1999 E300 TD - Road Vibration

Folks,

I am experiencing ever so slight road vibration at 60+ mph. I have heard horrible stories about pre-mature failure of engine vibration dampler - especially in S.I. (gas) engines. Would anyone care to comment/share their 'expert' advise on where should I start troubleshooting this issue?

With kind regards,

-NK

I would say balance your tires first. Engine at 60MPH are smooth and silky.

You have to visually inspect your flexdisc for cracks... if any is seen, then this is it. Usually with flexdisc problem, the worse time for vibration is under acceleration.
