1994 325i right front wheel shaking?!
Hey everyone-I have a 94 325i (E36) and when I'm driving on the freeway & the road bends left, my passenger front wheel shakes/rattles like it's going to come off. Checked the nuts-tight. Speeds around 70-80. Happens about 85% of the time & only when the road veers left.
Any ideas? |

Something is up with the front either right or left...wheel bearing, pinion shaft, tie-rod, could even be a steering rack issue...
Do either front left or right tire have any odd wear patterns? I'm not sure if you only checked tire lugs while on the ground?? So, if not and you work on cars...jack up the front and try to wobble the wheel. If it will move/wobble you got an issue there, possibly wheel bearing...if it does not... Take it to an alignment shop... Jon

Also check front shocks, mounts, and springs.......
The ride is really sensitive to these componets, especially at high speeds.
Look for oil leaking out of the shock. |

Are your wheels balanced?

Might want to tighten those lug bolts before the wheel falls off...
