Two weeks ag oi tried to get the wheels balanced on my two year old Swift, to be told they are so far out as to be beyond balancing. Contacted Swift CRD and their reply was amusing, they do not balance wheels as it makes no difference to the towing or ride of the caravan!!!
Now being a technical trainer for Bosch Delphi and Hella as well as numerous other automotive companies for many years. I Had to laugh at this response given that the wheels were nearly 260grams out of balance!!
So the question is anyone else had the same type of problem with wheel balance?
I am currently about to install a vibration monitor into the caravan ready for my next trip out just for evidence that Swift are talking a load of!!
p.s. the problem is that things keep coming loose in the van when travelling, cooker, fridge, cabinets etc.
