Make sure all the wheels are balanced correctly, and check all of the brake components for warpage, etc.

If it varies it probably is the tire pressure...that's what happens to me every day

id say check the tire pressure, also remember with the cooler weather the air in the tires doesnt expand as much as they do in the summer, also the tires might need to be balanced....hope this helps
