Thank you for the responses.
I will have my tire re-balanced and take it from there. But deep down I have a bad feeling that some of my suspension parts are going.
There are three arms under there.

- Control arms.
- Tension arms.
And
- Wish bones.
Replace all would be expensive. And all have bushing and ball joints.
I will check them all but you know how difficult they are unless the obvious like leaky and play.

if light braking will 'trigger' this, you should consider the thrust arm bushings.

Ard. I think you're on to something. I do feel a bit more pronounce vibration when brake is applied softly. So Ard, Thrust arms are the same as Tension arms correct?

In my E53 it was bad ball joints. A fresh rotate & balance always seemed to lessen it for a bit, but ball joints were bad & replacing them totally eliminated the issue.

Chris, thank you. Can you tell me which ball joints? Control? Tension or Wishbone?
TIA.
BTW, my front brakes are rubbing a little not to a point that it is hot to touch after driving but I can hear they squeak.
