    Intermittent front wheel vibration?

    Holds straight most of the time but occasionally begins to shake erratically. Not sure if it makes a difference but its an e28. Hypothesis's appreciated.

    Could be worn front suspension parts, worn struts, out of balance wheels, alignment, or a combination of those. The first task would be to inspect the front suspension and replace any worn parts, then have an alignment done and the wheels checked for balance.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

        had a similar issue ... control arm ball joint was my enemy. Just jack up the car and start checking things out.

        Cheers ...
