While driving it on the highway I find the steering wheel and generally the body of the car shakes VERY BADLY at around (50mph). At first i just accelerated and hit (65mph) and it wasn't that bad..
Strangely enough, when i drive any speed under (around 40mph) the car drives smooth as silk.

and when i change gears i dont know what it is but it makes a clicking sound....

any suggestion ?????


thanks

bimmerforums.com that should help you out some. Go to the southeast (Ga) thread too. Lots of help there. :)
Wouls say a mount? or your tires? Maybe a bent rim?

Check the Guibo or Flex Disk. Its a donut shaped bushing that connects the drivehsaft and transmission together.

Yea its 8 bolts I believe on the front side of the driveshaft and you may have to drop the exhaust (I did). Also theres a cover that kinda holds the driveshaft up (2 12mm bolts I think) that you take off on the other side of the driveshaft.

Took me about 1.5hr.
