Hi guys. I really like this board.I have 1986 528EA Approx 168M miles. There is a front end shimmy at breaking. Only at certain speeds. I changed the rotors, pads etc. and the problem still exists. Does anyone think that a new control rod-ball joint-bushing assembly might help? When the car is stopped and parked I can feel a small amount of play when I move the front wheels from outside the car. Has anyone had this problem? I bet hey have. Also....check out my BORGWARD site CALBORG.tripod.com. The Borgwards are for fun but the Beemer is the daily driver.....Saludos
