Brake shuddering
Hi. 2016 X5 35d, 70000km, new tires.
When I go down a long steep hill, car pretty full of ppl and cargo, gradually I start to get shuddering in the car. Not through brake pedal, instead whole car just shakes. This occurred on a hot day. This did not recur on a similar incline on a cool day during rain. The shuddering is a pulsation, but is not like when ABS kicks in. Dealer checked out brake condition visually (ie what mechanic can see without pulling off wheels). Pads look close to new, rotors look good. Interestingly (coincidentally), service computer shows front and rear brake job due in <5000km. Dealer did not want to do a brake job (how honest is that?). Dealer checked wheel alignment, looks good. Dealer came up empty. If this is not uncommon, there must be a service bulletin, but dealer said none exists. |

Replaced all four tires with Pirellis and had them balanced at a reputable place, no more shaking.
