Exclamation Vibration when braking at highway speeds

Just experienced vibration when braking at highway speeds (70 to 80mph) in my 535i 2016. The car only has 13k miles on it... I noticed it a few times before and it would disappear but now it has gotten more noticeable.

Scheduled an appointment with the dealer for Thursday. Hopefully they can correct the issue... However, I am worried because when I googled BMW F10 Vibration a whole load of threads popped up...

I will post what the dealer says is the issue and solution. Wish me luck.

Probably wrap rotor, I had vibration when braking at high speed and dealer replaced rotorS and pads at 15k, the vibration had gone away ever since. They also told me that BMW recommends replacing pads when rotors are replaced but not the other way around.

Same thing, had the rotors cut at just over 30K. Vibration went away.

Just got the car back yesterday. It was indeed warped rotors. They replaced the rotors and pads for the front. Braking is so so much better! Just hope this doesn't become a commo issue. It happened with my ML550 as well and I'm coming to think it is the auto ebrake causing it... possibly?

take your car to a shop and have your rotors resurfaced and then put back on properly. and stop braking like an idiot
