535 xi owners - does your steering wheel vibrate when idling?
I noticed mine vibrates when engine is between 600 and 1100 RPM

the RMPs are around 1000 when the car is cold and the wheel vibrates then. also when you rev it the steering wheel vibrates when going through the 600-1100 range.

I have no vibration.

I would check to see if your front tires are the problem

A little...sometimes. just when the engine/transmission is cold. It almost feels like the lane change warning vibration.

Alright. I got same thing. AND I tested a bunch of other 535xi in dealers parking lot - they all do that
Thx
