They are all newish,all replaced within the last 6 months,all well greased etc.
This phenominum only occures when the roof is wide open :o

It wasn't a weird side wind thing on the first occasion? Have you replicated since?

How can an open roof affect the steering wheel vibration?

Here's a thought:
The air turbulence may places a new side/forward/diagonial(?) force to the body therefore stressing the worn steering components with an alternative manner.

Yes, many times.

Taskos,the only thing on my car that I havent given any real attention to is the steering rack.I too was thinking an aero thing,but how can this be?
I will be taking the rack out soon and overhauling it,then we will see :?
