In Reply to: Handling & Steering wheel posted by Mo on July 29, 2001 at 22:51:34:


Hello, I'm having a couple problems on which I can't find the solution. The car handles very poorly at speeds above 60 mph. The steering is slightly unresponsive. I have a 93 325i, w/ 120,000 miles on it. The wheels are 17x7.5 (i bought the car used w/ these rims).

Also, above 60 mph, the steering wheel has begun to rattle, (but this is recently, handling has always been poor since I bought the car).

What could be the problem? I'd appreciate any help. Tire pressure is fine, power steering fluid is fine.


Mo, I have some similar handling issues at higher speeds on my 106,000 mile 325i. I am going to have the control arms replaced (w/ball joints and bushing) as there seems to be some excessive play in the front suspension.
