I've been experiencing a few annoying issues on a recently purchased 2005 X5 4.4i. Wondering if anyone has solved them.
1. There seems to be a rotational thumping sound when accelerating at highway speeds. It sounds like its coming from the rear.
2. When slowing down and then accelerating there is sometimes this loud thud and a kick.
3. When coming to a stop, it seems as if the car cannot stop smoothly. Even when depressing the brake pedal slowly the car always seems to hesitate or jerk at the end.
A quick inspection under and around the car didn't reveal anything out of the ordinary.
