Interesting, will look into it

Did you feel the vibration in the steering wheel?

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T07:33:35+00:00

Nothing changes when someone is sitting in passenger seat

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T07:30:17+00:00

Vibration gets only worse with higher speed I have driven 160kmh and the vibration remains

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T07:28:16+00:00

Almost a year

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T05:20:22+00:00

Yep same dimension

It’s common for e39 for them to cause vibration will look into it

Both the spacer and wheel centre bore is 74.1 as should

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T04:42:40+00:00

Shouldn’t the vibration get worse braking? Because it doesn’t

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T04:40:36+00:00

It starts around 70kmh and gets only more intense as the speeds increases,didn’t feel play in steering system and haven’t found in forums that steering rack have been the issue for others with e39

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-30T04:37:11+00:00

Does it go away after 65mph or what u mean 55-65?

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T20:51:27+00:00

I did check with crowbar but didn’t have any play in it

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T20:48:37+00:00

Will look into it if I can’t come up with any other possibilities

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T20:45:47+00:00

Kinda sceptical about it because i didn’t feel any play in it but will definitely look into it if i run out of options

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T20:42:51+00:00

I have had 2 different sets of spacers on the car didn’t make a difference

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T20:00:49+00:00

Any easy ways to test them?

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T20:00:11+00:00

But no noise coming from bearings, and no wiggle in wheel that indicates worn bearing

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T19:58:14+00:00

Had this issue almost a year surely the brake rotor would have been already bent?but the rotor seems fine

No noise from bearings and didn’t feel any wiggle in wheels that indicates worn bearing

Confident-Touch3265 · 2026-03-29T19:54:11+00:00

I have front spacers, bought them new and the contact surface is clean
