Have had the problem since day one. Usually around 70mph with a slight drivers side cross wind. Every time I pull the under tray I forget to try to resolve....

I was having/feeling vibrations due to the small OEM mud flaps, so I took them off. But then I put a lift on and the vibrations are back due to the felt ā€œskid plateā€ being dropped in certain areas, especially the rear. So I’ve become accustomed to it.

the newest vibrations I’m feeling now are when the car lags in its downshifting like when slowing down for a light or traffic on a highway. Feels more like I’m going over a washboard then subtle vibrations.

If you are referring to the little flaps in front of the tires, they are wind deflectors, not mudflaps.

Hi there, Peter. Will you send us a message with your VIN and dealership info? I can look into things on my end.

Well I went under the BS and I zip tied each of the rubber hoses, careful not to kink them of course. There was a small plastic connector box that was not attached to the body of the BS very well so made a cross of zip ties over it. used around a dozen ties. So far no vibration - let you know next few days are to be very windy.

I have felt it as well. Especially when a transport goes by in the opposite direction.

Okay so after driving for a couple weeks in all conditions of wind I can say the vibration has been cut some 95%. The zip ties worked. ???
