I don't think you are alone! I would look at two things that I had issues with. 1. Rotors. I would bet that the rotors if our of ballance them selves. Changing mine out all together helped with mine. 2. Then I put my summer wheels and new rubber on and the vibration was back. Taking my wheels to a local wheel shop we found that my wheels were out of round. Got new Saab wheels and new Rubber and it rixed the problem. Please note Bridgtone and Wheels above for these wheels and tires because I sold the car right after.
