Ok guys here it is the rear tailgate door with the spare wheel attached to it starts to wobble when travelling at speed (starts to wobble and vibrate from 60mph upwards) when you look through the rear view mirror you can see the wheel wobbling. I have checked all the nuts and bolts all aretight as they should be, i have also had the panel off the rear door and had a look inside to see if there waqs any reason for the wheel wobble in there cannot find anything obvious.
Any body got any ideas or has anyone had the same experience not sure what to do next apart from take the rear wheel off as it makes quite a noise.

Cheers john........

Or just get your back door balanced :lol
 
Ta for that I never seem to get what I want on the search button :doh
 
don't thank me too soon, i didn't actually read the thread :augie
 
ok will take another look inside the rear door and see if i can find any broken spot welds will let you know what i find soon cheers
 
I think Clive fixed it by drilling A small hole and sticking in a screw or something instead of spot welding it, Can't remember of the top of my head
 
If we could only combine all our brain power we would be dangerous.:augie

Some people are good at remembering there was a solution.

Some people are good at finding the original thread.

As always this is a team effort..
