When I got home I had the tyes re- balanced as I notice this slight murmur through the steering wheel but it didn't improve any. I have been reading that either the faulty engine mounts or the drive shafts can cause this.
It's not that the steering wheel vibrates that bad but you can certainly feel something there and even coming through the accelerator pedal.
