I've got the rig booked in Thursday morning to have a pro go over the brakes and adjust the hand brake as well. I've got both but, if I pro does it, it is done properly 100%.

I will let them know what it is doing and, if it is brake runout or something else brake related, I will hopefully get that sorted same day.

Abs sensors? 

Power steering might have that famous shudder going on. 

Could be a loose rack...

The only things I have changed from the car not doing it, to doing it is the hubs, discs and pads.

Could be that I've upset something with the abs but I'm not thinking it'd affect the steering in the way that it has been affected. Power steering.... SEEMS like it but it didn't do that before.

I've done some reading and the lines get to leaking quite a lot?? But, people turn to replacing the pump as it is the cheaper option??

Loose rack.. not as likely as that'd bump and carry on and, likely make the same "shudder" regardless of direction the wheels are being turned.

Getting the brakes done in the morning, I'll let them know what it is doing and maybe it was in the way that I've put something back on. First time really doing anything to the car, gonna have some "learning" moments.

Thanks for the tips.

The shudder is air in the power steering system cause by you or whoever worked on the car moving the wheels left to right manually. The shudder will disappear in time. If you jack up the front of the car and cycle the steering (with the engine running) this will cycle the aerated fluid out of the rack.
