Line profile variations of WR 134 are analyzed on more than 200 spectra collected at Haute Provence Observatory and at Kitt Peak National Observatory. No conclusive evidence is found for a periodic behavior. However, for some frequencies, for example, the ones close to nu = (n x 0.5)/d, the data are ill-distributed, and the existence of a related periodic phenomenon cannot be completely ruled out. This does not mean that the variability presents a purely random behavior. Several new characteristics of the observed deformations are extracted from the analysis of the spectra and it is tentatively suggested that these could be the signature of a bipolar flow.
