Default Anyone feel the engine vibrate through the steering wheel?

I can feel this and it's an intermittent, grainy feeling, usually felt strongest at the bottom of the wheel. Sometimes I can feel it at only 1500-2000 rpm and above, other times at idle, and sometimes the steering wheel is silky smooth through redline.

Selected gear doesn't seem to have any effect, but I think speed may. It feels better below 35 mph.

Default well, i might, but the vibration can still be felt when idling at a light...

It's just more obvious above 35-40 mph.

There is another issue with groaning coming from (what the dealer thinks is) the steering rack. So hopefully fixing that will reduce / eliminate this problem as well.
