Hi All

Just bought a 1970, 1600 Automatic!
Over the last couple of days the steering wheel has started to judder quite violently for anything from 10-45 secs then goes off!
Any ideas?? I have checked wheels & nuts & steering rods, all seem to be ok!

Bit of a mechanical biff, so all help greatly appreciated!

Where would be best place to take it too round Mango Hill!

Cheers

Hi

Welcome along, can you tell us what sort of car it is? Is it a Beetle or a Type 3?

first and cheapest thing to do is get the tyres checkd and a wheel balance

car forums. where a lot of peoples good intentions end up taking a good old car off the road forever never ever to see the road again. 🥲
