2005 X5 has 195,000 miles. I have a bit of a shake under braking so I have been putting the car into the manual mode when a need to slow down and using some help from the transmission to help slow me down. I don't rev it up too much and just use a little less brake. Am I asking for trouble or is this within the realm of normal responsible auto usage. Perhaps someone will say something like: Hey don't do that, the car was not made to use this type of braking on a regular basis. Hate to sound like a lazy guy but I am trying to keep three of these Beemers running and it keeps me hopping. Thanks to all the good hands on deck here.
Don't do that fix the shaking problem
Not to mention that you're beating the tar outta your clutch-packs for nothing

Changing clutch much more expensive than changing brakes! Wouldn't do that.
