Slight vibration through the steering wheel

I am getting a slight vibration through the steering wheel circa 1800/2000 RPM; any slight movement of the wheel can decrease or increase the "feeling".
According to the Disco3 guys http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic47485.html this appears to be a well know issue and can be cured with a gearbox double flush.
As my warranty runs out in a month or so, I thought it prudent to have the annual service done early, so I am taking the car in within the next few days, and will try and get this issue addressed, or at least get the dealer to record the issue for future reference when the vehicle is only covered by the Extended warranty.
Can I please ask, does anyone know if there is there a TSB ref the double flush?
Any other info on this issue of vibration in the 1800/2000 RPM range would also be useful?
Thanks in advance

Just want to check...is it all the time?...mine is now 100% definately tyres flat spotting when left for greater than 14hrs takes about 7 miles to warm them out. Mike

Do not think it is a tyre issue, plus just had 4 new tyres fitted, mine is definately RPM related.
The vibration is like a buzz felt through the steering wheel.
