Front end shudder on RT turns

2001 legacy, 65k km getting a shudder which seems to come from the front end. Only noticed it within the last week and occurs so far only intermitently on tighter right hand turns (ie at an intersection). Feel it through the wheel somewhat, and can hear it. Initially thought it was snow tires scrubbing in wheel well snow pack, but wheelwells and driveshafts are clear of snow. Powersteering fluid level ok. Closest I can describe it is like the ABS pulsing feeling. Any suggestions?

If you have the 4EAT, try putting the FWD fuse in the slot in the fusebox under the hood. If after that the shudder goes away you have duty'C' solenoid/clutch pack problems.(or possibly one or more different sized tires).

Thanks for the tip and links Carl. I also will check the tire preasure as the temp. has been up and down recently so it's possible one is getting a bit softer than the others.
