Not had this before so helping one of you guys can help, basically when you hit a pothole or a dip in the road it feels like the n/s/f wheel is twitching about or moving, making the car wobble a bit, I figured if the camber was out on that side that would have explained it. Had a good nosey underneath and none of the bushes have any excess movement so i'm a bit stumped, any ideas??

It might be a track rod end or bottom ball joint with play in it. Give them a check. :thumb:

Suspension top mount? It'll make noise over bumps, feel loose/wobbly too. Jack front up well off the ground and grab the wheel and give it a good nudge. You'll see movement from the top of the strut.

may not be steering related may be a body issue check all the joints around the mounting points around steering and suspension
