I had the same problem which 99% of vibration gone after a road force balance ( simulates weight of the car when balancing).The shop I took it too said road force balancing equipment used on the website. I can tell you that after 95k I have replaced the entire front suspension chasing rattles, drifting, twitchy steering as well as vibration. Good luck!

Hmm, then I'm not sure. Could be wheel bearings?
