Alright guys,
I have been experiencing some strong wheel vibrations at 65mph+. This was on my aftermarket Roti's. I swapped them out to my OEM wheels and the same problem occurred. I decided to see what could be wrong since I swapped out both sets of wheels and my steering wheels still shook. I pushed the car a littler harder and at 90 MPH the WHOLE car was shaking. (You can hear the center console rattling). All of my testing was done on a newly paved road, it was perfectly smooth.
I checked the CV boot and it was in great shape, it even looked brand new (It's OEM and hasn't been replaced). I was stumped. I took my car to the dealership today and had them look at it. Of course they said that there isn't anything wrong with it and they claimed to have re balanced my wheels. (I sent it in with my OEM wheels to avoid confrontation).
I took my car out tonight to test it, and it seems like the Steering wheel vibrations may have settled, but once I hit 90 MPH, the WHOLE car started shaking again.
I looked over this forum and saw some guy talking about replacing the lower control arm bushings. I looked at a BMW forum and some guy had a similar problem (His whole car would shake at 100 MPH), and everyone was telling him to replace his lower control arm bushings.
Any ideas as to what could be the problem?
Thanks for the help.
