I recently had to go to a tire shop because I had a nail in one of my front tires that caused a steady loss of air. Anyway, since I got the tire fixed, I've been getting intermittent vibration in the steering wheel, sometimes when going straight; but I always have a vibration when turning the wheel, more specifically when the wheel is coming back to the on-center position. I can feel a vibration, almost like a pulsation. Any ideas? TIA.

 

check the rack and pinion and tie rod ends make sure the boots aren't broken or leaking grease, check the axles, check tire's air preasure, whn was the last time you did your brakes? rotors might be wrapped. I would lift my car and check all of this possibilties.

 

Tire pressures are all at 32psi. Brake haven't been done in 2 years. Still plenty of pad left. The fact that I mainly get it when turning: does that point in any direction?

It wouldn't hurt to get under there and look at your tie-rod ends, axle boots, and ball-joints...
