MY14 Steering Wheel Shaking

Gents, I would appreciate your thoughts on this. Mt D4 has been in twice now to rectify a pretty severe steering wheel shake. Wheels have been balanced twice by two operate garages and are bang on. 4 wheel alignment has been done, EPB has been checked and is not binding. Brake discs are true and not warped. Callipers are fine. This happens very randomly. It is not dependant on speed or road surface. If you brake when its happening it gets significantly worse. Normally happens after an hour or so driving. I have asked the dealer for a replacement vehicle, using the Consumer Rights Act 2015 as the basis. Its a JLR approved vehicle which I have had for 6 weeks. Its going back, but I wondered if anyone had and thoughts on the cause?

The links below are to a couple of videos I put on YouTube.





Cheers

Warped front discs?
D4 OEM discs have a habit of doing this.
Replace with after market ones.

That was my thought given that it's worse when braking. Discs have been checked though and are within tolerances.

If not that leaves tyres.
Try swapping front to back. Idea
