Crazy shuddering under load
Hello,
I have a 2008 535xi with 128k.
After the car warms all the way up, more than just blowing warm air from the heater, it will shudder violently under load. Going up a hill any time I give it gas it shudders terribly. If I put the clutch in and rev it or I am going down hill it's fine.
The shudder/shaking doesn't seem to follow car speed or rpms. More gas more shudder basically. I would describe it as coming from the front and a loose side to side shake. Not a tight vibration.
Here's the stumper.. no codes or CEL. I used ista+ to check.
I took it to a local Indy they said new tires(I have one off tire due to a shooting.. it's been on there about 3k miles) first and second: replace lower control arm bushings. I have a feeling he didn't let it warm all the way up (it takes like fifteen minutes of driving) and never actually experienced the shake.
About 300-400 miles before this started I replaced the injectors, used index 9 with new seals and couplers. I can't afford 1800 for index 12s right now so this was the best I could do. It had index 9s and has been fine for atleast the last 30k I've owned it. I'm putting this in here because I fell like it could be related but there's no codes so I don't know how the shake could be missfires.
Thank you for any help or insight
