Default Au Wagon Massive Steering Shudder

Hey FordForums people

This is my first post/thread, thought I might give the collective intelligence of FordForums a try.

Anyway on my 2000 AU Wagon Forte (4sp Auto) I get massive shuddering, generally while parking. Only when I steer into a full lock when going slowly/stationary, esp in reverse. The revs drop from ~800 to ~400 and the whole car shudders, especially the steering wheel. Then the car seems to 'realise' and the revs increase again and the shudder seems to lessen.

Can someone explain this to me? The cars done just under 200 000 k's, is this a sign of impending doom?

Thanks,
booksacool1
