Hello, We just got a second primavera 50 and it has a bit of a vibration when driving. It feels like I am driving over a rough road or rumble strips. I checked and adjusted the tyre pressure as well as the lug nuts. It doesn’t feel unstable, just slightly bumpy. And I have done head to head comparisons to our other primavera and it is quite noticeable. Any ideas? Closest dealer or garage is 3 hours away, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Check the age and shape of the tyre, could need replacing.

Brand new, 2020 primavera, has 15 miles on it. So tyres are also brand new.

Run your hands over the tyres, could still have a flat spot which would give the impression of a steering issue.

Okay, thanks for the advice. The current lock-down is making this even harder to manage. What do you think about putting a bit of extra pressure in the tyres? Like up to 30 in each instead of 26?

Get on a stand , spin one wheel at a time,steady hand,Hold a screwdriver as close to the tyre as possible Spin the wheel,get closer,see if the tyre touches all the time Then try other wheel.front of tyre and sides ,

I would have thought more pressure in the tyres would have made it worse.
