    Do I vibe?

    Having asked, some have said it settled a bit with a Tyre change or wheel balance. Most have said it does not. Couple have reported it to perhaps be worsening.

    Do I vibe?

    With the radio on, I can ignore it. Sometimes it's a bit more chill as well. See how you get on, and fingers crossed for you!

    Not much cabin noise but it's no BMW. Then you go above 63 and hear MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR and feel it in the wheel. No vibes for me elsewhere and if I hold the wheel high or low it's slightly less noticeable. 10/2 o clock is most intense. That's my experience at least. Clear as day. Noisy car above...

    Do I vibe?

    Yes. I worked in healthcare for many moons. Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome is a thing. Whether the MG is enough to cause it, I'm not sure. Certainly felt like it going uphill, similar to my impact driver! I couldn't comment on whether the above is a legitimate argument, but can comment that it...

    When you say logged, is this by sending an email? (done) or do they need to review it physically. Just want to make sure I'm covered - this is my first time with a car that was purchased with a fault.

    Fingers crossed for you my friend! - If there's a slight incline, this made it more noticeable for me. Only managed 70mph for 30 seconds today, it was... tolerable.... But still clearly there. Good question. I have had it badly once, but it varies a lot. I can easily see a garage taking it for...

    I got no idea, need to do a quick law degree! Will study up when the baby is asleep. Do send me a message and let me know, would be very interesting to see if another user has it, considering I was advised the last 15 sales didn't.

    Do I vibe?

    Thinking that I might offer for the dealer to do the Tyres and rebalance, then reassess. Thought, it'll likely put me outside of the 30 day rejection period, but honestly I'd be happy with a replacement that doesn't have the issue. Any particular thoughts on the advantages and disadvantages of...

    Do I vibe?

    I can cancel all that within 14 days as per my rights anyhow. So not a problem there! This is the exact email sent to me - decided to omit the individuals details as I would say that their level of service has been good and they have been good communicators, till now at least! "This unit came...

    Thank you Thank you for this. Is that for the vehicle price only? I believe it's just above the threshold once I added the GAP insurance. It was all added to the same order / PCP deal so presumably S75A applies. Thanks again!

    Do I vibe?

    Yes PCP. I've been googling the means of rejection for PCP, seems it's a bit more complicated but still possible. I'll notify the finance company also of the fault. Is there anything else I should take into consideration? Yes, that an me explicitly stating within my emails that I would reject...

    Do I vibe?

    Thanks, I'll see what they offer. If I could reduce the issue by around 30-50%, I’d consider that acceptable. My previous Mini had its fair share of quirks, so I'm used to a bit of adjustment. I'll also try increasing the pressure to 40, as suggested in other threads. However, the thought of...

    Do I vibe?

    I'm already on page 5..... Might even need a power nap halfway through. Thus far, few reasons to be optimistic. I'll be doing a motorway detour this evening to have a reflect on this.

    Do I vibe?

    As it seems at this stage that a fix is unlikely, I'm resigned to gauging whether this is something I can live with. I had a pleasant drive to work today, mostly under 60 mph due to speed limits rather than choice. That would be 90% of my journeys. That said, I’m still a bit uneasy about the...

    Do I vibe?

    It varies, so I wonder if it's my own paranoia at times, I certainly had a couple cattle grid moments. Could I live with it? Yes absolutely. 80% of my driving is on A roads. But I also feel like given I made clear during several emails and phonecalls that I wouldn't be happy with a lemon - I...
