It is real vibration for me above 80kms and it says on. The frequency of vibration increases with speed. I went to BMW yesterday and went for a drive with the foreman and we could replicate the issue. The car is booked in for tomorrow. There is no noise. |

Hmm. I think we have different issues. For me it is still speed independent and no vibrarition in the steering wheel. And it is more a tickeling, like a light vibration of a phone's vibration alarm.
The same, however, is the rpm based vibrarion. Worst in the 2500 range. I will check the case above with my dealer. |

Just to repeat the question above. Was it a strong shaking vibration, did you have noise or was it silent and only feeling like a slight tickle vibration. |

My issue is different where the vibration stays on continuously from 80km/hr speed and higher. I could only get an appointment on 8th of March so I will have to wait a bit for a fix. Did you get yours looked at? |

Not yet. Have an appointment late in february. However, I still have the feeling we have all different issues of vibration.
My is still only in the floor and pedals. No noise. Tickeling feeling like a slight phone vibration alarm. Speed independent. Only while driving. Worst at 2600 rpm. Worse in Sport Mode, depending on exhaust flap open or closed. M40i. Still wondering if some vibration is normal an i am paranoid. However, will definately visit the dealer and let you know. |

Hi All
Time for an update. After waiting 6 long weeks, I finally dropped off my car on 8th March and my dealer gave me a loan car. Finally got my car back after 6 weeks My SA advised me that they had to re-balance the prop shaft. I asked them how can a car with 24,000 kms have an unbalanced prop shaft. SA had no idea and said it could be a manufacturing fault. When he said that, I asked him if it is a known manufacturing fault, then why are they not replacing it rather than try to fix it. His answer was that he has not closed the case with BMW Australia and he is still waiting to hear back from them. In the meantime, the dealer thinks balancing should resolve it. The part that I am not happy with is that they said they test drove the car, but I have been following the odometer readings in my BMW app and it had not changed over 4 days prior to them returning the car. When I jumped in the car, sure enough, the odometer reading was the same as my app. Looks like they were just trying to get rid of the car and me. Driving home, I could only go up to 60km/hr so could not really test it above 80km/hr. I have a feeling that the issue will return or has not been fixed properly. I am almost tempted to dump the car and buy something else. Does anyone else have any other updates? |

Any updates on this vibration issue?
I have the same high-frequency vibration through throttle pedal - more noticeable at lower speeds, but there all the time whilst on the move. Balancing hasn't seemed to have worked. |

Posting/watching…. I seem to now have this too. It is only ever so slight vibration at low speeds and low-load… but it’s there. Completely dependent on engine/transmission load. It’s so light, that for the past few days, I kept asking myself “has this always been there or am I just now noticing this?” Don’t think I’ll take it in as of now… just monitor it. Due for an oil change soon… will bring it up then. I know what they’ll say tho… “cannot reproduce”.
