I didn't read what others thought. I wanted to put up my honest opinion. My first and only 2015. ive owned many, however this one is the first 550...... love the car....the seats are not comfortable. 59,000 and it needs the fourth set of tires....it's a v6 and I don't drive it hard at all. They...

Do you still have these??

They will tell you anything to get you out the door. That is all that has happened to me.The best one I ever got was "the new tires need to be broke in". I guess they thought I was born the day before.

Sounds like a sub frame or carrier bushing let loose to me.

I would like to seek some ideas on what to try on mine. My vib comes in around 56 MPH and slopes off around 78. DONE LIST: 1-road force balance the tires several times. 2-tires and wheels swapped out. 3-DS swapped out and indexed. 4-hose clamp. All original parts are back in it now. The vib is...

FORD hired someone else to design and build the car.....:clap2:

:cheers:I think in some cases this could be a fix to the dreaded VIB. The cure has been anything from the trans flange to the half shafts. I think it would be worth a shot to see if it works. I have had the VIB for 8,000 miles and 6 trips to the dealer with the same old story.

I've thought about doing mine as well. But wasn't sure how much clear coat was on it. I think for what they coast and what your buying a little more TLC would be spent on the clear coat. My 2011 Sonata has a better finish than my 2015 S550. What did you wet sand with? say 1800-2000 and water?

What did that set you back.

My 2015 has been in the shop 5 times and each time they say it's ok. I haven't posted all summer. My vib starts at about 50 and carries to 80 or so. It is only felt in the wheel though. Anyway I have a file folder an inch thick with bullshit from ford about my issue. The company I work for...

If anyone from FORD gave a S**t your right, they would be here. the reps are just that. They are here to show an attempt and nothin more. Smoke and mirrors. Draging you along until you give up, file lawsuit, trade it off, LL, or who knows what. They are the middle man between you and the dealer...

Rule that out by dropping tire pressure to 28 front and 25 rear. This should tell you if gtp drive line or the road.

correct procedure to measure backlash in ring and pinion' [ame]

So my vib starts around 50 and is at it's worst at 58-60. What I feel is in the wheel. The last visit to the dealer showed a diff DS made is worse. They put mine back in and RF bal the tires. When i took to them I had no vib in the wheel and now I feel most of it there. If i could get it out of...

How did you determine what your lash was?
