sounds like you looked at everything - sometimes its good to get another luder to take it for a test drive and look at the issue ;)
hopefully there is someone near you that you can meet up with over christmas and get a second opinion..

What tyre pressures are you running? Does it happen on a particular road? I assume you've had the tracking done?
