Hi guys I hop some one can help

I have a qashqai J10 1.5 DCI when I'm driving and brake I have a vibration through the steering wheel. When I am driving I can slightly feel something but it's worse when braking I think from drivers side. I jacked it up and found track rod end had slight play so changed it . But although steering seems tighter I still have this vibration coming through it only sounds slight to you ear but is noticeable thought the steering wheel . Any ideas!? Could it be the top coil in mount. I'm at a loss as it doesn't seem obvious as when I go up and down and side to side on wheel nothing. Brakes were changed 3 months ago by the dealership ingot it from but I wondered if they are cheap could this be the cause .... Any help or guidance I would appreciate thanks!!

Thought that it's just they were new. Also it doesn't happen every time most times and hard braking

Did it do it before you had the new discs fitted

so if the dealer fitted them and you never had a problem before that i would take it back to the dealers and get them to look at them for you, hopefully they changed both pads and discs at the same time ? also get your tracking checked aswell.
