UK 35D vibration
A couple of weeks in. Not that many miles yet. Super happy overall but...
...There is a fairly high frequency vibration through the steering wheel at 1,000 revs which is alas at exactly 30mph in comfort mode. Not sure if a fault or not, does anybody else have this? |

I used to feel slight vibrations at low revs (about 1100rpm when cruising comfortably) when I had my 20" summer wheels, however I never felt those vibrations with my 19" winter set. In my case I guess it is the 2l Diesel motor combined with the heavier 20" wheels, which may not be perfect. Due to this I decided to get summer tires for the 19" wheels and run them this summer... all is well now. I love the 20" looks, but at the end of the day the 19" ride better (much less motor-vibrations and quicker throttle response). What size wheels do you have on your x3?

Glad to hear you liking the 35d.
I've not had the same vibration as you, but when I got the rear brake pads changed, I had vibration. The garage re-fitted the pads, and all was ok again. I'd take her back to the garage and get them to check it out
