Default Front Wheel Judder at Low Speed Maneuvering

Hi All,

So when moving from a stop with full left or right lock - forward or reverse there is a physical judder felt from the front wheels through the steering column and seat.

Could this be worn wheel bearings or is it normal rear wheel drive stuff?

it happens when low speed maneuvering in car parks or reversing off my drive with full lock on - that initial 1-2 mph stuff.

Normal on many XFs.
Some do it some don't, depends on the tyres and the temperature (worse when cold).
It is commonly referred to as "tyre skip".
