Mechanic/Garage in Poole, Dorset

Post by Videng » Tue Apr 01, 2025 8:39 am

Hi, I am looking for a mechanic or a garage in the Poole,Dorset area which can help me solve my '07 Jimny "Death wobble" issues. I have had the king pin bearings replaced as well as new suspension shocks all round, usual tyre checks etc but the steering wheel wobble is still there between 45-50 MPH.

My local Suzuki dealership are great for any official Suzuki parts and servicing but I need a garage or mechanic who is willing to investigate this issue further. Many thanks in advance for any advice. I've had my Jimny for over 15 years now and still thoroughly enjoy driving it apart from this steering wheel issue.

Hello I’m in Dorset and don’t know any specialist. I would say check all the bushes, get in there with a crowbar and see if anything has any movement. Also check all the bolts
