My Ride: 2008 550I LOADED, all options except HUD and NV
I was getting vibration under braking, also, I recently went to get new front tires. While they had the car on the lift they asked when I had my last alignment (my old front tires were worn on the inside edge), I told them I had the alignment done not even 6 months ago so I didn't even have 7k miles since. They took a pry bar and showed me the flex in the control arms - that made it pretty clear. When we took my old lower control arms off the bushing had a crack that went all the way around like a ring around the bolt hole, then the upper control arms had cracks in the "arms" of the inner bushing as well as radial cracks around the edges of the bushings.

What did you use to bleed your brakes?? Some sort of pump?
