GTV vibrations (teeth jaring)

Post by Corne »

I have a prob on a GTV 2.5 1985


In any gear at 4000 RPM the car vibrates like mad but not in neutral without load
I have replaced the gearbox mounting and serviced the propshaft and replaced the prop rubbers ( a small fortune )
Not the hanger bearing assembley yet
any advice ???
I had 11 Alfas before and this one is stumping me


and yes i read the previous post and links but still have no clear answer

sounds like driveshaft....

Try the old hose clamp balancing trick.

I had a similar problem. Everything replaced but still an imbalance ONLY at 3000 rpm.
