[QUOTE=Weasel;754254]Unfortunately the center bearing is pretty hidden from sight, you gotta lower the exhaust and remove the aluminum heat shielding to see it... pretty much takes either bringing it to a shop or having access to a rack to confirm that it's the problem.[/QUOTE
yeah i think i'll let the shop have a look at that then, thanks for the info, i was just about to get under the car and have a look at it, i would of been under it all night trying to locate it if you hadn't of just told me that ![]()

If you have CPO coverage then yeah, just bring it in and let them diagnose it. If it is only in the front it could be an axle... but nothing beats a physical diagnosis.

Set up for an 845am appointment on Friday. Let's hope for the best as I leave for DC in the X5 the end of the month. It'll annoy me all the way there and back. By the time I drive back the CPO warranty and the Maintenance Plan the previous owner bought will have expired!

If it was wheel balance it would happen constantly at speed, not just under braking. If the rotors etc are new it isn't likely that either. It is not uncommonly caused by slack in the ball joint ends of the lower control arms. I just changed my front lower control arms today for this problem, now she drives like a new car.

Weasel I just noticed a post of yours mentioning something about the vibration, saying whether the car feels like its drunk/wobbly for a second at a time,and that's exactly how mine is!! You couldn't of described my symptoms any better than that! What does that point to? Cheers

What year is your X again? If it is an 04 and up with x-drive it could be the transfer case. With this particular problem with the t-case when you are cruising stead around 40-45ish it will have this "drunk, wobbly" feel every few seconds. If this is what you're feeling you can unplug the electric motor on the transfer case, if it stops doing it the case has worn parts and needs to be replaced. But note that unplugging it will cause DSC faults that will need GT1 clearing.
