Pete, 90% of 5 series owners have 520d. No issues here with my lowly 520d

My Wife noticed it too today.
So did a guy from work when he took it out for a short drive.

It's fairly constant in motion, all speeds, doesn't change with gears/revs. It's just there all the time.

I don't know. If I post a picture of my nose then maybe you can identify if it's one you've bloodied!

Not that I've noticed.
I have pondered on whether it's EPS related but a combination of feeling like pushing water uphill and no more warranty means I prefer to enjoy the car as best I can. Regular trips to the dealer are a right old pain in the butt. |

FWIW I never had this issue on my 2010 F11 530d and in now 4,000 miles in the last 4 weeks in my 535d F11 again no such issues.

BMW have recommended that the dealer replace with new trailing arm suspension brushes that are normally fitted to a 7 series. Goes in next week to get it sorted.

Sorted, no vibration at all.
I can feel lots of feedback from the road though.

No feedback at all on the Motorway and smooth A/B roads. Some of the poorer roads there was a little feedback, but nothing worth worrying about, and after a while I forgot all about it. Where as before, there was a lot of vibration on the same roads. The car actually feels like it should do now. So well done BMW.

The trailing arm suspension brushes were replaced with ones from a 7 series.

Holy thread revival!
@balster, do you have any part numbers at all? Mine vibrates in drive, if I rock the steering wheel between 5-7 o clock the vibration disappears |
