The nose wheel can shimmy on the AW39, it happened to me last week taxiing back at 12 knots ground speed, I clipped an unseen change of surface and the nose wheel did just that. A little alarming, but a swift application of brake soon sorted it out. There is no warning that you are about to exceed the laid down limits, only the GS readout.
