Hello everyone,
I'm a motor trader & we've got a 118d that's causing abit of a headache. When we get upto
50mph the whole car starts vibrating & gets worse with speed. All 4 tyres rebalanced and we've tried it with different alloys and tyres with no luck. Vibration still there when clutch disengaged and tranny in neutral at speed. We lifted the car, took the wheels off then put it in gear & spun the wheels, narrowed the vibration to be coming from the rear. Mechanic thinks it's an unbalanced shaft or transfer box bearing (but there's no rumbling/noise, just a vibration)

Can anyone point us in the correct direction or has anyone had a similar issue?
Many thanks for any feedback
