When I first bought my 2011 DTS and was driving it back home, I noticed a vibration at around 60-62mph. The vibration felt like it was coming from the front passenger side. It didn't bother me much and I figured I'd get it re-balanced at some point.
A few months later I went to a tire shop and had them do a road force balance on that rim. After getting the car back, I still had the vibration but maybe it was slightly reduced.
Half a year later, I bought 4 new tires for my car. All of them were road force balanced. When I went on the highway for a test drive, I still felt that vibration.
I figured it was something suspension related or a worn engine mount after reading posts on cadillacforums.
Last week, I had my rear brakes changed and my tires rotated. When I went on the highway after, I got the impression that the vibration wasn't as bad as it was before. The vibration also seemed to be coming from the left rear of the car.
If that rim is slightly bent or out of round, could that have been undetected by two different road force balance machines?
