    07 525xi like a vibration something loose..

    So I noticed from second to third if I get on it and it's just about to shift I hear/feel a odd vibration like a loose heat shield rattle when it's about to shift but only when I really get in her like getting in highway.. any ideas? It's coming from left front driver side....

    You feel it only when shifting or only when driving highway speed?

    if the latter, I have a similar problem and it’s with my control arms. Ball joints and bushings are bad so that causes vibration in the front end when I hit 60+.

    No vibration no shake. It just happens when I get on it and it's just about to the point of shifting it makes like a strange sound. It's hard to explain. But it's like a heat shield rattle almost. But only from 2nd to 3rd gear. Every other gear is fine and didn't make the sound.
