    Shaking car

    Hello guys, im new here i just literally joined. Im In Botswana Africa. so for the last couple of days my car (E46 2004 330CI Coupe) has been shaking in the morning when i start it. then i stabilizes after some time. how ever it shaking a lot also when i accelerate. i have changed Discs, tie rod ends, Rack ends, control arms, shock . it has some funny sounds underneath i dont know what could be the problem. anyone to advise?

    My apologies if this has been posted before i went thru previous threads and couldn't find anything similar

    Hi,
    Seeing as you are from Bots, you can also try more "local" forums.
    BMWFanatics.co.za is a great forum with lots of members.

    Back to the problem you have, did you change engine and gearbox mountings yet?

    I'm betting it has a solid misfire.
