vibration question

EDDY_YIYI · 01-24-2012, 12:22 PM

My 135i has some vibration when it just started which I can feel from the seats. After the car heat up, the vibration is gone. I try my friend\'s 335. His car doesn\'t have this issue. Is the vibration normal?

I have this occurs to me once in a while during startup, after the engine warms up and the rpm drops, vibration is gone.

Mine is 7-Speed DCT.

Had a similar issue found it was exhaust resonance related. When I put on the berk full race exhaust it, it was worse at some rpm's. Found it was the exhaust shield mid car, bent it back a lil bit noise didn't come back until the bolt rattled out of the hanger in the back of the car.

mine has a bit of that but only when the AC is on when the car is cold (on idle).

Goes away after driving it for a minute or two. Only started taking notice now as we are getting 40-42 degrees (C) weather here

mine sometimes vibrates at idle like when you get a sudden chill. Its really quick and intermittent.

It is 2008 135i, automatic, yea, after i drove for 10 mins, the vibration is gone. I also found that when the AC is on, the vibration is worse, it was like a wave.

EDDY_YIYI · 01-26-2012, 01:23 AM

It was at idle

Mine does that too, I have 2008 135i A/T.
I can feel the vibration from the seat, when the car(and the outside temp.) is cold.
after 10min. of warm up solves the problem though.

After installing my whisper axleback I noticed at idle my car vibrates from the seat also, unfortunately it does not go away after the car is warmed up. I have catless dp’s but I don’t think that could be an issue since I did not have that problem when I had my stock axleback. Do you guys think it has something to do with the cold weather? I am pretty sure the axleback was installed correctly. I have an automatic 135i. It is very annoying

Any recommendations??
