a wobble or slight vibration
hey guys im noticing i have a slight wobble that i can feel when the car is idling, it goes away above 1100 rpm. When i rev the car high and the cars rpm are going down right at 1000rpm i can feel the wobble, it seems like its a side to side wobble, then at lower rpms i can feel it as well. Please let me what you guys think?
thanks in advance |

You're not alone. I feel that too if i'm interpreting your post correctly. If someone could explain it and provide a fix (if it's a problem) then I would appreciate that

Rough idle is caused by many things, improper detination of fuel (spark plugs, coil packs, bad fuel, bad fuel injectors), improper lubrication, or your timing being off.
Change your oil and your spark plugs. It should solve your issue. Do NOT run your oil for 15k miles. |

Not necessarily, a buddy of mine has a 2007 328i and he had some rough shaking at idle and it would almost choke out with a little gas, he had no CEL or anything on the dash and it was coil pack 6 that had gone out. Its easy to test which one is bad.
