my Volkswagen Golf Eighth Generation (2020-present) is vibrating when I drive, what could it be

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather all tools and parts required for the repair.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and engage the parking brake.
• Wear safety glasses and gloves.

2. Tire Inspection and Repair

1. Inspect Tires:

   • Remove the hubcaps or wheel covers if applicable.
   • Check for bulges, punctures, or foreign objects embedded in the tires.
   • Look for uneven tread wear patterns.

2. Adjust Tire Pressure:

   • Use a tire pressure gauge to measure the air pressure in each tire.
   • Inflate or deflate tires to match the manufacturer's recommended pressure (found on the driver’s door jamb).

3. Wheel Balancing:

   • If imbalance is suspected, remove the wheel from the vehicle.
   • Take the wheel to a tire shop for a professional balancing service.

3. Suspension and Brake Inspection

1. Inspect Suspension Components:

   • Visually check struts, shocks, and control arms for signs of wear or damage.
   • Replace any worn or damaged components (e.g., bushings, ball joints).

2. Brake Inspection:

   • Remove the wheel and inspect brake rotors for warping or uneven wear.
   • Replace warped rotors or worn brake pads as necessary, following proper torque specifications for brake components.
