Wheel judder and violent vibrations. Help!!!!

[Steve1312]

Yeh thanks I am getting the four wheel allignment done aswel now it's sorted

[X5-D-Sport]

I had EXACTLY this issue and it came in at about 60mph... release the throttle and shook like hell... blar blar blar..
Then it all changed and was ok for a mile and started again...

Got to my destination 5 miles further along...

Turned out the nearside disk & wheel were VERY HOT, the disk had Blue'd with the heat...

Sticking brake calliper was the culprit
A £35 seal kit incl brake pistons fixed it...easy job too.

I would have pit money on a wheel bearing failing or suspension joints...

Go for a drive and see if one disk heats up...may take 5 miles... bit Its worth checking before you spend hard earned cash on an aligent check...

19" wheels are normally 'staggered' so a different size wheel and tyre, rears being wider (or should be).  Front to back swap not recommended!

Do you mean the 20" wheels??
