I NEED HELP WITH THIS AS I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR EVERYWHERE AND NO ONE CAN HELP. EVERYTIME I DO ABOUT 50-70 MPH I GET A SHUDDERING AND VIBRATION THROUGHOUT THE CAR AND IF I INCREASE THE SPEED IT GOES. ALSO I HAVE JUST NOTICED THAT ONE OF MY REAR TYRES HAS STARTED TO WEAR ON THE INSIDE ONLY

the reason you are getting vibration through the steering wheel is because there is a out of balance wheel or even a balance weight has come of the drive shaft have these checked out and also have the tracking checked as this can cause vibrations through the wheel as for the rear tyre wearing out uneven could be the bushes that need replacing have these chacked out by a garage or 4 wheel alignment centre
