Provided we haven’t gone into bad books with the dealer, I’d go halves in the drive shaft and see how it goes. If BMWNA aren’t helping them anymore (I can see why, techs experimenting on BMWNA’s dime would shit them) you can’t blame them for turning off the tap.
So have a heart to heart with your dealer and build a relationship? |

Dealers borrow parts off of inventory cars when necessary in certain situations and they don't have them in stock. It doesn't take long to r/r a driveshaft, it's completely reversible and has no permanent impact on a car, so it's certainly feasible in this instance. Plus if it fixes the issue then they just leave it in the clients car and overnight a new one for the donor. The manufacturer will even pay the labor twice to cover the dealer in these instances.

Same Issues
Reported vibration at last service but they said they could not feel it. I didn't have time to press the issue at the time but at least the issue was noted. I know for a fact it is vibrating because my hand will start to tingle after a while. DEFINITELY more noticeable under heavy acceleration and/or going up a steep incline (more load on drivetrain) and within the same MPH range you mention. A lighter vibration exists when just cruise control on flat grades. I had my tires just rebalanced to be sure and no change in symptoms. 2016 MY

Had same issue on my e90 m3. Two wheels got bent and caused uneven tire wear. Crazy vibrations at 60-80mph. Replaced all the wheels and mounted new tires. Car was like new after.
Its your wheels and tires. Replace all four wheels and all four tires! Asap Also had tires re balanced and alignment done. Issue persisted. Only thing that fixed the problem was a complete swap.

Local dealer has a brand new M2 sitting on the lot with no rear brakes, as they were given to a customer as replacements since couldn't get in stock in time for him...so dealers do do this. Completely up to the individual dealer.

I have the exact same problem. I bought mine at 15k. I've had the driveshaft and motor mounts replaced. No change. They're doing the tranny mount now. It's been in countless times. Any update ???

+1 on buying that car in the first place. I would've politely shove those papers right back at him when I found out it was driven at the performance center. Regarding them saying you would feel the same thing in a different car whatever happened to going for a test drive before you buy it. If it's there you know it's normal (or your driving style). If it's not you buy the new car. |
