Default Help! Vibration in steering column...

Within the last few weeks, I've noticed a subtle vibration (feeling and noise) coming from my steering wheel/column. I only hear/feel it when under 20mph. It's present when I'm going straight, but more-so when I'm turning; and typically when slowing down more than accelerating. I had the tires rotated a few days ago, and had the 45k mile service last week, despite my car only having 41k miles. They said my brakes and suspension are fine. And when they drove the car, nothing was noticed during their test-drive. Now my warranty's up (which is why I had the car serviced a little early).

Any ideas????????

Mark

sounds like a bad wheel balance to me actually. only because you noticed it after the rotate and not all the time. since the wheels were in the back you didnt notice the vibrate in the steering wheel.

What I mean is I noticed it the last few weeks; I had the tires rotated last week, and it wasn't the problem.

Any ideas anyone?
