hey guys, noticed today around 50-60 mph, every time there was a bump on the road, my steering would wobble quite vigorously for a few seconds and then go away, only happens when go over bumps or potholes, any ideas of what the cause might be? someone told me it might be the steering damper, but im not sure?

Damper, cv joint, bearing, tyre pressure, tracking, all or none of the aforementioned.

+1. And could also be lower suspension bushes etc

A few ways of defeating your wobble.
try different tyre pressures, check all the above help points,
try getting your front wheels balanced,
or like me, dont drive in the death wobble zoned speeds
