Vibrating/Chuddering coming from passenger side wheel

IanBuey1 · 08-10-2017, 11:38 AM

Hi everybody I'm after a bit of advice please.I have a 2008 e90(N47 engine).Right Hand Drive.
I've recently been experiencing a very loud chuddering/vibrating noise coming from the front left hand side of my car.It only does it when I'm turning right and putting weight and pressure on the left hand side of the car.Its even worse if I am reversing up a hill and turn the wheel to the right.
I've had it into the garage twice and my mechanic can't find the problem.He seems to think removing panels is the next step to try and resolve this problem.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou

Go to another mechanic.
Check for play in the wheels. Lower wishbones are common so give them a good check

Could be a warped alloy. They are made of chocolate
