Big Rattle!

[T88OMM]

I have driven over 3000 miles in the last week and a half and all was going perfectly with the S3 up until today! I had to navigate my way over a bumpy car park with over a foot of snow on it reasonably fast so I would not get stuck. Just driving home from work then and the car has developed a large rattle / judder through the steering wheel and i'm getting a lot of vibration through the seat! I have a few ideas what it maybe but i'm looking for all your opinions?

You might have thrown a balancing weight.

Have you got arse crack Jay trapped in the boot maybe.

in these conditions could just be accumulated snow/ice in nether regions...

I had a judder on my old R32 that I felt through the steering wheel and seat when easing off the gas and it turned out to be a track rod end.  Was replaced under warranty.

maybe a buckled wheel/ lost wheel weights or some things been knocked loose.  to be sure id get it checked out mate

i have experienced something similar a few years ago,

in my case it was a build up of snow inside the wheels thus throwing the balancing out.

I would think this could be the cause too
