Reverse, turn -> Shudder?

Hi All
I bought a brand new Defender in December 2023 and it currently has 8,500km on the clock. Being new to the world of Land Rovers I have been very impressed. Recently however, I have noticed a vibration on the steering wheel, especially when reversing and turning out of the garage in the mornings (on tarmac). It feels as if the diff-locks are engaging. I sent it in to the workshop last week and this morning the Land Rover workshop informs me there is no fault. fyi. This is in Eco and Comfort modes. I also tried other modes, also engaging low range and various other settings before trying again in Comfort mode.

Anyone experience something similar? Is this normal?

Thank you
Regards
John

No it's not normal. Can you replicate the fault at the dealer so they can see what's happening?
