Hi BRUMBALOW1,

Thank you for the donation.

After replacement of tires, was there any difference in the vibration? If yes, the tire balancing could have been done incorrectly.

If it is not a balacing problem, check the CV shaft inner joints for excessive side play and the lubrication. If the rubber boots are torn or grease has spilled out, the joint would not be able to move smoothly and cause the vibrations due to the imbalance.

We have checked the CV joints it has some movement on the driver side but there is no grease coming out of the boot nor cracking in the boot I thought the CV joints would make a noise when they were going out

No, the inner CV joints would not emit noises during cornering or moving around unless it is in very bad condition and the noise are not that prominent most of the time.

Since you have excessive side play, it should be checked for wear.
