I'd be interested in knowing if any of you guys with M5's are experiencing any of the problems, reported on the other E39 message board, with a front end wheel shimmy at approx. 60-65mph. I'm wondering if the stronger thrust bushings used on the M5 are better at keeping this problem from rearing it's ugly head. If you've ever visited the Roadfly E39 message site you'll see constant chatter about the constant "wheel shimmy" problem with some of the E39 models, mostly the 528 series. I would be interested to know if, as M5 owners, you are experiencing any of these symptoms. If not, then I want to speak with my dealer and see if I can't get my suspesion parts replaced with some of the upgraded M5 parts.
