BMW driver’s question
I recently heard disturbing noises coming out when moving the steering wheel on my BMW E60. I’m having a hard time locating where the noises are coming from, resembling rubbing rubber parts. I have been searching the Internet for the cause of the symptoms occurring, but have not found a definite answer. I would like to add that the noises are not heard from the start of driving only after some time.
Has your service perhaps come into contact with such a case?
BMW driver question
For some time now I’ve been hearing a slight metallic sort of clattering sound from around the tur bo (not necessarily the turbine) more on the driver’s side. At the ASO they have not diagnosed any fault however the sound bothers me a bit. The engine is an N47t, mileage around 50k, I was wondering about the timing but I don’t think so. Apparently, some timing components have already been corrected in this engine model.
BMW driver question
I recently purchased a 2011 BMW F10 520 diesel 2011 mileage of 125k and I am concerned about one problem. Well, when firing up the engine, you can see a terrible vibration left and right on the gear stick (manual transmission). Later on, the stick keeps vibrating while the engine is running. In addition, after opening the hood, I noticed a strong vibration of the entire engine when the engine is warm or cold. Could it be some kind of pads, injectors or timing? Alternatively, what could be the cause of this and what to pay attention to?

I have a problem with my car. The car suddenly didn’t want to drive, to the point that it was blacking out. So I went for a computer diagnosis and the error came out: “Exhaust gas recirculation system. Air volume too low.”

I have a problem. Most likely it involves the battery, but I am not sure about that.
The situation is as follows, after the winter the battery was already in poor condition (the car in the winter practically only stood in the garage, rarely started), so I decided to recharge it, I disconnected the terminal from the “-” and plugged it in to charge overnight.

I have a problem with the transmission, namely on a curve the failure mode of the transmission came on and the car stopped driving. After waiting 10 min the transmission started to work but not in the best way. After connecting to the KTS, the error number 100 and 120 popped up. From the box gently oozed oil through the simmering. What could have been damaged and is it worth repairing?
BMW driver question
I service my car only at your place and appreciate your professionalism and approach to the customer. Recently, I have read on various forums about flaps breaking off in the intake manifold and looked at pictures of what havoc they wreak on the engine. From what they write, they break off even in new manifolds. I’m thinking about removing them from the manifold and driving without them.

I have such a problem that the car began to start harder – I just had to keep on the starter longer. I decided to change the fuel filter and after replacing the fuel filter I drove 10 km and turned off the car and in 10 min I could not start again. It’s been like this for a week and I don’t know what to do next. Please reply.
