Just after I had the B12 kit fitted, the car hasn’t felt quite right on acceleration through a certain speed range.
When I am accelerating relatively hard through 50-60 mph in third or fourth I can feel a rumble/vibration through the car. This is more pronounced if I’m accelerating through a right hand curve and less so if on a left hand curve. It all feels fine and smooth up to the late forties but then gradually gets worse only to ease off again after 60.
I appreciate that the new suspension set-up is firmer and that I will feel more lumps and bumps but you can certainly feel this rumble/vibration through the seat and I have never felt this before with acceleration being smooth through all speeds and gears.
It has been suggested that maybe one CV joint is worn which would be the reason behind the severity according to the left or right hand bends.
Any suggestion would be most welcome as I need this sorted before the Monza trip in September.
Cheers
