Hi all,
Have a problem that's driving me nuts, I have a wobble on the steering wheel when I reach 60mph, had wheels balanced at 2 different places, new tyre as 1 of the places said that could be the cause, but still exactly the same !! Any ideas as to what else would make this happen anyone ?? Thanks in advance...

Hi mate I had the same problem it turned out I had a warped disc plus I had bushes replaced and that shorted it , my x5 drives like a dream now it made a hell of a difference on steering

Hello mate ,

Yeah forgot to mention I changed the discs and pads about 3 months ago too.. Just out of interest, what bushes did u change?

Hi mate I had all bushes change as needed for mot as they failed it on them, plus I had all new disc and pads on about a year ago but because I went for cheap ones on ebay they say that's why one of the warped I couldn't believe it when they said and to fail it on all bushes was mad ... But once change it drives excellent very,very smooth it made a hell of a difference

steering wheel judder at 70 to 60mph is a common issue.

i had this issue a long time back, resolved by changing the front bushes and the tyres were due as well so they got changed too.

Ok guys thanks for taking the time to reply, just one more question , what sort of price am I looking at to change the bushes ?

i had judder as well , changed the front lower arms as the bushes were completely shot , got a full 4 wheel alignment  that all helped , BUT the main problem was a front wheel buckle , smooth as silk now .
