Ok - I had my car into BMW this week - and had the head mechanic join me for a test drive.

The vibration was there - and he could replicate it while driving. The very strange thing is I had mentioned the "air conditioning" had been mentioned on this website as a possible cause.

When we had the ac on the vibration happened - when we turned the ac off - the vibration was either lessened or did not occur.

He had some ideas - but decided to reopen the case with tech support at BMW.

He emailed me yesterday and said Germany has received many reports of this issue.

His words:

"Do not preform any repairs at this time, a measure will be released as soon as the solution is available"


I take this as "good news" - finally BMW is seeing a trend and will be addressing this issue in some sort of technical fix for all cars with this issue.
