I had this shaking (from left to right) when ever I start my car in cold. Today I dropped my car for diagnosis and got a loaner from Rallye BMW. I was expecting 3 series as a loaner, guess what I got almost new 528I-'X'-Drive.

Most dealers here in So Cal dropped loaners... they're all rentals now... I think Crevier is the only one I've seen who still provides loaners.

Counterpoint alert:
I had service yesterday, and my loaner was a 2009 528i x-drive, and I realized how much I love my car. Thank goodness I didn't try to save money, and instead went with the N54. Night and day difference.

I was at our dealership for maintenance and they gave me a 330 as a loaner. Who's your SA?
