Harry,

Technical questions are best posted in the model forum.

Send me a PM if you want this thread moved.

If it was my car, first thing I'd do is check power steering fluid level.

There are numerous things which could cause vibration/shudder.
Did you use the EXCACT size tire recommended by Jaguar? If not, check the wheel wells for marks, the tire could be rubbing.
Assuming that is not the problem, next time you get the car up to speed and get the vibration, put it in neutral and let it coast.....if the vibration goes away, the problem is in the powertrain.....if not, the problem is in the suspension/rolling stock and drive line. It is a process of elimination.
