Possibly, don't discount the simple remedies that you'd normally think about on an older car. I had to have a full 4 wheel alignment done on mine after 1 Week! L319 D4 HSE

Usually a vibrations is caused by a wheel out of balance. Sometimes they are not balanced correctly from the start and other times some of the weights can fall off throwing it out of balance.

Have you taken it through any sticky mud? If so put the steering on full lock one way and then look in the backs of the wheels for lumps of mud stuck inside the rims these act like unbalancing weights. Turn the wheels to full opposite lock and do the same thing again. This was what caused mine to be wobbling.................. but then I had been offroading in sticky mud.

I sometimes notice vibration, but it appears temporary. I attribute it to cold tires, though there are many theories...

On my last car cold tyres would cause slight vibrations for a mile or so. L319 D4 HSE

Sounds to be definitely the wheel balancing. I'm sure that it's just that a wheel balance weight has come off. Get all fours wheels balanced and that should fix it. 2013 New Range Rover Sport HSE SDV6
