Flywheel!

I had this with a 130tdci at 300,000ish.

Wasn't the flywheel, but I took it off the road before I investigated the problem.

Wheel bearing? Turn left and right on a quiet bit of road and see if loading up one front wheel changes the vibration. You can then work out which side is the problem.

Could be a tyre bulge.

Hi thanks for the replies checked all your suggestions all fine was thinking maybe front end running gear cos it's mostly through steering wheel?

[DanMalkin]

Damper gone soft allowing the wheel to oscillate up and down?

Yeah maybe a mate of mine had similar problem and put back wheels on front and cured it straight away might try that next couldn't harm lol

Bucked wheel or tyre worn out on inside edge.
