No accidents.
High quality Michelin tires, all 4 wheels balanced twice, rotated front-back, alignment done - no change.
Tires are wearing off evenly.
Recently front suspension A-arms and links to the torsion bar replaced (were clanking already) - no change.
No play in front/rear bearings.
Both front and rear wheels have slight steering play (a few mm when being rocked by hand). But I have had other cars with a similar small play and no vibration problems. In front the outer tie rods look good/good rubber, the play looks more like inner tie rods.
Can't tell where the small play in rear is coming from (which btw sits lower than 10 years ago).
Is it common to need a replacement of inner front tie rods at this mileage? Do they cause vibrations with a small play as described? What else could be going wrong?
thanks!!!
