Hello from Chicago

Hi, just couple words about my vehicle, well in 2010 I got my self a 2010 Ford Econoline with 9k miles on it.

Now in 2013 it all ready has 270k. Im surprised too how good its holding up. Im using synthetic oil and doing oil changes every 7 - 8K +

I got couple of problems, I dont know where to post this since its a Econoline but here it goes.

I get vibrations when I go over 65mph which I could feel on my steering wheel and gas pedal. Now it seams too be a simple wheel balancing which I did 5 times and it didnt help.

All of my 3 local mechanics which one of them works for Ford are scratching their heads.

I have changed the all tires, shocks, rotots, breaks, all boll joints (alignment was done twice ) we also checked drive shaft and vibration didnt quit.

I got no one else to turn too about this problem. Some say its a turn convertor...

Thank you in advance

Oh, btw, check the engine mounts, high speed vibrations at some particular speed can sometimes be caused by loose or broken engine mounts.
