That problem has gone after, but it comes back again after the Koni fitted. Will get AK to inspect when i pop down tomorrow

yes, didnt feel any vibration when I tried out the yellow stuff. might be the suspension mount is going, recalled that was what caused bill some issues. anyway, will leave it to the expert.

ah, now you remind me, I still havent tried the fsd yet!!

Suspension Mount wear out not only vibrate while braking, but also rough road.
