way to rule out a wheel or tire problem. I suspect as Ken mentioned a
driveshaft issue but the wheel swap might isolate a tire with belt damage.
Tires with belt or cord damage can have some strange symptoms.
Forgot to mention, new Michelins and used wheels recently, FWIW. No bumps while moving wheel, just when holding to left; no bumps moving or holding to right that I've been able to feel. Swap DS or PS tires/wheels? Or both, one side at a time? Question is really which side is likely to have the problem given bumps only happen holding to left?
