It's two-fold Chris.... the steering wheel seems to vibrate in my hand at 30. Exactly like when a wheel weight is missing.... only nowhere near as harsh as that... it's barely noticeable but noticeable nonetheless.

And then i have the issue of having to move the steering wheel quite a bit to keep it straight. When i hit a pot hole its not ''wrenched'' out of my hand but sometimes, when ive caught the pot hole at a certain way, it'll pull one way... normally left as it feels like it goes with the camber after hitting the pot hole.

i get no ''wandering'' other than the above though :)

Ok its probably the wheel then. But you have faults that would cause both a wobble(think tank slapper on a bike) and a vibration. Both need attention so its probably a pointless discussion going further anyway.

Let us know how you get in. :y
