Default Steering wheel judder.

I know this has been done to death but I have the dreaded wobble .I've looked around for info but am finding info a bit sketchy.I have replaced all the brakes disc's and pads recently but to know avail.I am assuming its something to do with the front bushes.Is it just a case of working my way through or is there a particular bush that causes the problem.Any help would be gratefully received.

Many Thanks

Steve.

You might check the tires for uneven wear and low pressure. Easy to check this and quick fix before spending a whole lot of $$. I had a wobble and checking/topping tire pressure fixed it up.

Yes first thing I would have checked are the tires, then have it balanced. On the cheap, you can rotate your tires front to back and see if that corrects or lessens the problem.

Thanks for the replies guys.I will definitely rotate the wheels and see what happens I've just fitted new track rod ends and had a 4 wheel alignment done so will see if this improves matters.

Cheers Steve.
