I have a 2007 335XI and brought my car into the dealership a week ago for vibration when accelerating around 60mph. Thought it might be a wheel balance issue but just got new wheels, tire, balance and alignment 3 months ago. Vibration doesn't occur as bad when accelerating around a curve. No vibration when laying off the gas/not accelerating around 60mph. Dealership says the drive shaft needs to be replaced. Initially they said 2-3 weeks as the part has to come from Germany. Now they are saying that BMW apparently switched manufacturers and now the part won't even be available for shipping until 1st week in Sept. This means I likely won't get my car back till mid Sept. Luckily I just paid for the extended warranty (Platinum) so it is covered. Anybody else heard of anything like this or having a similar problem??

I hate it when I have shaft problems. But its usually due to to much social lubricant.
