Hi All,
This is my first post. I am the proud owner of a 95' 525i, and really enjoy it. It is a German spec car, and have had really nothing much to complain about - except for a strange wobble, at between 100 - 110 kmph, which seems to travel not just up to the stearing wheel, but to the whole body, especially the front seats.
The "shake" goes away after a 130 kmph or so !
I have over the past 2 years tried all sorts of fixes, from simple wheel balancing...to changing of the rims and tyres, front control arm, everything from the book. The guy who fixes my car has been working on BMW for the past 20 years but can't figure it out.(maybe need to find a new mech)
I am in the process of having the front shocks replaced to see if it will resolve the problem...which im sure is the right thing to do. Any advise would really be a great help.
Doug
