Front End Vibration S90-V90

Thanks for the reply. I very much appreciate it. In regard to the balance and alignment, the tires were new and alignment done 1k miles before I purchased. Not to say it's not a possibility but just for reference.

As far as "floaty" feel I'm not sure I understand. It doesn't feel floaty to me. When I think floaty I'm picturing like an old Lincoln continental:) Is that what you mean? The driving vibration I get, kind of feels like I'm driving on a semi smooth dirt road.

You may be onto something with the tie rods. I definitely get some banging on smaller holes and broken pavement. I noticed that right away. I was expecting this luxury wagon to feel smoother. Would bad tie rods cause front end vibration?

I assume they checked the transmission mount but not sure. I'll see if I can wiggle under there tomorrow. For a little more clarity and this is the best I can describe it. The idle revving vibration kind of feels and sounds like, in a way an exhaust leak in the steering wheel. Maybe there is a small leak, could that cause a vibration?

Again thanks for any advice. Even though so ewhat similar the v90 is way different than the 740 I previously had.

Kindly
