xi Model Shaking

[mattt]

I am experiencing shacking at about 70-75 and above in my 330xi. As odd as it sounds I really don’t feel it in the steering wheel, more under the driver seat. I have read a few posts about the all-wheel-drive models having some issues with this, but I have not seen that many solutions. The comments seem to indicate it is a problem somewhere in the drive train, however most of the posts don’t indicate where the problem was eventually isolated to. Has there been any consensus on the solution to this problem?

Thanks for the input.

My dad had the same problem. He had the 17" rims and swapped to blizzaks in the winter. Both sets had vibration. The dealership (sears imports) in our area calimed they couldn't tell of a vibration. But I can verify that it did vibrate. Enough to make your hands numb.

Anyway, he found a solution . He traded it in for an A8. Problem solved !
