SO, when driving, I have this slight shake in the steering that will last for a couple seconds then go away. Its random, no consistent speed or anything.

This sound farmiliar to anyone? Wheel baring?

 

i found this for you

 

Thanks!!!!

 

I recently had a left front wheel bearing replaced. It sounded like a separated tire. A persistent knocking noise, slight feel in the steering wheel, but no difference when turning.
I researched replacing it myself because of mileage and CPO limitations, but, it was replaced under warranty.

Have you lifted both front wheels and checked for play in tie rods and steering components?

 

Not yet, I'm planning on it but didnt know if there was a common e60izim for this I didnt know about yet, thanks!

 

i was just about to start a topic on this one....i have a 550i and my steering wheel shakes on cold starts and when i stop at lights here and thr...when i went to the dealership for something i asked the tech. he said it's a high performance vehicle, it has alot of torque that's why it does that .....i think that BS...what do u guys think?...could that be the case?
