    Vibration under acceleration - 530D LCI E60

    Hi

    I am experiencing bad vibration under heavy torque or acceleration. Checked the flex disk it was bad changed it but nothing better.Center beering looks good no free play on it.
    When car put in N or P and reving no sign of bad torque converter no hesitation in changing gears or any other problem.

    They said I must change driveshaft?

    Anyone had such issue also tranny mounts and engine mounts are in good shape.

    You haven't given us the year and mileage. Think I would check motor mounts and transmission mount for signs of failure. Here is a good write up on the e60/61. Worth a read as it lists most known shortcomings and a good maintance section. So you just bought a e60

    Also curious if either of y'all have any resolution... my issue is similar. My vibration is around medium-high torque during acceleration. However, if I go full throttle, I don't get any until I let up on the gas.
    Indie suggested drive shaft, but couldn't come with a solid conclusion.
