   Hey there
   
   my car has recently started squeaking from what sounds the suspension and today it started making like a vibrating sound and i could feel it vibrating under my feet!
   
   however it doesnt do it when im going 50+ or when im going over bumps
   it only does it when im either slowing down or going approx 30 or less
   
   does anyone have any ideas?

   Does it vibrate at idle?

   Can you explain the vibration abit more? As in, when it happens. Cant understand what you mean that it doesnt do it over bumps

   Wheel bearing?
   
   If you grab either side of the wheel and try to rock it, is there any play? It should be ROCK solid....
   
   Wheels imbalanced? A weight could have fallen off.

   check the condition of the damper. One may be leaking
