850 shimmy 850 1995

hi, new owner so please be patient.
got a 95 850t5 auto 120k fsh, couple of things that concern me and i need some help.
first get some vibration around 90-110 then it disappears, had the front wheels balanced but it till happens, the car runs strait even underheavy braking?
second and this is weird- if i put the car in sports mode(auto box) it runs fine as it should but every now and then i get a real shimmering when braking from about 30mph to 0, feels like the abs is cutting in, no change in conditions, the only lite on is the little red lite for outside temp -2c i think. if i switch the engine off and put the box back into economy the shuuder goes away. any ideas? has anyone had the same prob, coz my local shop are stumped, it is under a warrenty from the garage i bought it so hopefully they will fix it for free. thanx in advance for any assistance
