DarkRepuls3 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2013 Just brought a e36 320i 1994 off trademe. However, when I drive at high speeds and brake at high speeds there appears to be a wobble or like a jolt in the car? Does anyone know what could be causing this? Or what I need to get fixed? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cliffdunedin 8 Report post Posted September 10, 2013 More than likely unbalanced wheels, bearing, alignment! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2052NV 43 Report post Posted September 10, 2013 get front wheel balanced and while the wheels are off get discs skimmed if there is enough meat left on them.... and that should be problem solved Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ultrarandom 3 Report post Posted September 10, 2013 I know a common cause for this is the lower control arm bushes in the front. But start off with the easy basics, doesn't hurt to replace things or get a wheel alignment/balance. Have the same problem in the girlfriends car.

jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted September 11, 2013 If it's just braking at high speed most likely the brake disks need skimming or replacing (and new pads). If it's noticeable when you're not under braking could be wheel alignment or control arms/bushings. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
