Steering wheel shimmy/jerk in my Audi 90S

Hi Scott,
 
Thanks for the advice.  I made an appointment to take the car in to my mechanic, 
he suspects a bad CV Joint.  After talking with him I jacked the car up one by 
one pulled the tires.  At the front right, I did see that the CV "boot" is split 
so I'd say there's a good chance the CV joint might be shot, as I don't know how 
long the boot's been bad.  I had my tires replaced at Wal-Mart about 1 1/2 
months ago but those guys probably wouldn't have noticed it or even cared if 
they did.  I'll be sure to have the mechanic check the tie rod ends and bushings 
too.  He's pretty thorough so he probably plans to anyway.
 
Thanks for asking about my movies.  My company specializes in horror films.  I 
was just in Cleveland the beginning of this month where they had a premiere for 
one of my flicks called Kottentail.  My "biggest" movie to date is a comedy 
called "Poor White Trash" which I co-wrote.  It stars Sean Young, Jaime Pressly, 
William Devane and others.  We're getting ready to make another movie in just 
under 4 weeks so I want to get this car trouble fixed.  Don't want to be left 
sitting on route to the set!  :)
 
Thanks again!

Tony:  You could have loose suspension components.
Strut tower top nut, A frame bushings, tie rod end.  I'd suspect A frame 
bushings.
 
What kind of movies do you make?
