First port of call with this kind of issue is wheel balance. They may just be starting to go out of balance especially as you have recently put some miles on them. Also, are you sure the tyre pressures are right?

Had wheels balanced. Then after driving 8 miles car started to vibrate very badly. Vibration stopped as soon as power removed and came back as soon as throttle applied. Started at 70 mph but was present all the way down to 40 mph. turned off the motorway and the fault was gone. This is only the second time it has happened. Feels like the engine is miss firing. Have just driven 30 miles with no problems. There is no noise when the vibration occurs. any ideas ??. Bad fuel ?. |

I hate to say it, but it could be the DMF not ironing out the engine drive vibrations, especially as it happens with power delivery. I know you say you had it replaced a while ago but .....
