Hmmmm. I do have a steering wheel shimmy only at ~70mph and only for the first 10-15 minutes of driving. Then it smooths out. Front end is all new. No brake shimmy/shake. Was chalking it up to the aftermarket wheels just to put it out of my mind.
Is the servotronic torque converter a serviceable part or does it require rack replacement?
