Renault Trafic Van Juddering after MOT - Dezzy
Vehicle - Renault Trafic Van, (camper), 2002 2.1 diesel.

Hi,

Hope this will be a simple answer.

Had my van in for an MOT a couple of months ago and it has been stood since then. Came to use it this weekend and it judders quite badly at around 55 to 60 mph.

Is there a process of elimination of what it could be. The only thing I can think of is getting the wheels balanced. Could the tracking be a contributer as well.

Thought I'd ask before I take it to a garage 'cos no doubt they'll want to change everything.

Cheers

My appologise. I guess I was being a bit rude. Just got screwed over from a garage who changed my radiator unnecessary - left a bit of a sour taste.

Thanks for your advice.
