steering wheel

A steering wheel (also called a driving wheel (UK), a hand wheel, or simply wheel) is a type of steering control in vehicles.
Steering wheels are used in most modern land vehicles, including all mass-production automobiles, buses, light and heavy trucks, as well as tractors. The steering wheel is the part of the steering system that is manipulated by the driver; the rest of the steering system responds to such driver inputs. This can be through direct mechanical contact as in recirculating ball or rack and pinion steering gears, without or with the assistance of hydraulic power steering, HPS, or as in some modern production cars with the assistance of computer-controlled motors, known as electric power steering.

    Vibration in steering wheel

    ICE cars you can understand the engine causing a little vibration but I don’t understand why my MG4 has it even when sitting still. Even when stationary sitting at traffic lights or something I can feel vibration on the wheel. Is this common and what is causing it?
