Default Slight vibration steering wheel A4 estate

Hi guys,
I have an 02 audi a4 estate and there is a slight vibration on the steering wheel, almost like the steering wheel is loose. This only happens now and again and seems to be over uneven ground. I have noticed the front tyres are wearing on the inside edge on both wheels. Could this be wheel alignment that's causing the wear and vibration
Thanks lee

It would either be your control arm bushings or engine mounts. Also you may need to have your car realigned.

1. Alignment
2. Wheel bearings - Jack up the car and hug the tire try to rock it up and down and side to side. The tire should only rotate about its axis. if you can move it around the wheel bearing might be worn.
3. Control arm busihings
4. Tierods
5 Steering rack
