Range Rover Evoque suffering vibration issues - what can I do?

I am experiencing vibrations on my six month old Land Rover Evoque, It’s primarily through the steering wheel and gets really bad at 1000 – 2000rpm. I’ve had it inspected by my local dealer, but they say the problem is ‘slight’ and refuse to take any action. I’m really not happy and feel the car is not running correctly, what are my options?

Presumably this is a diesel. The same 2.2 engine has had camshaft problems in the Freelander 2. The only way to take it further would be to pay for an independent engineer's report. www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/expert-witnesses/
