Car Vibrating Between 30 and 45 mph
Hi everyone,
Ever since I bought my 2013 E350 Cabriolet about a month ago, I've noticed a distinct cabin vibration starting from the rear of the car and moving to the front between 30 and 45 mph. It is not felt during any other speed. The tires look very good and they do not deflate. The rims do not have any visible damage either.
Has anyone else experienced this? Could it be a bent driveshaft?
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for getting back to me. All wheels were balanced 2 weeks ago. I've noticed this morning that at low speed (5 or so mph) the rear end wobbles. I had this on my Acura TL some years ago and it was a warped rim.
I will take it to a tire shop, do what you've suggested, and report back.
Thank you.

Status Update:
Took it to a tire shop and a bulge/bubble was found on the rear driver side tire causing the car to shake. I've ordered 2 new Goodyear Eagle Sports and will install them on Saturday.
Thank you all for helping.
