turns? straight? under acceleration? under braking? only between 35-40mph? Need to know more so we can make some educated guesses.

Did you put new tires or wheels on? Have you run over a speed bump or hit a pot hole recently?

I agree. My first thought is that the wheels aren't balanced. Either new tires, out of balance rims (new or caused by hitting a pothole/curb), or one of the balancing weights fell off.

No, I didn't hit the pot hole neither the curb and didn't change the tires, I just bleeded the brake fluid out.

Did you torque the wheels down to 79.5 ft lbs (or 80 ft lbs for those of us who challenge the OEM spec)?

EDIT:

If you answer is yes, do it again for safety measure. We're human and I've missed this.
