Good 6-Series specialist needed

Hi,

Anyone know of a good 6-series specialist not a million miles from the West Midlands? My 635 has some irritating wheel judder which I'd like to get sorted, and I'm aware that sometimes takes a little while (and hence money) to track down.

I've spoken to a couple of puported BMW specialists who claimed to be "6 series experts" but obviously weren't, so any recommendations appreciated.

That "irritating wheel judder" can be caused by lots of things such as bushes, balljoints, wheel bearings, wheel balance, warped discs etc.

It's not rocket science so take a look & see what looks the most worn & go from there.

I've heard that tie-rods etc can need replacing every couple of years. Speed bumps & potholes will not help any.

I've never come across a 6-series only specialist
anywhere - even the likes of Jaymic and Munich
Legends don't specialise in them. I'd be inclined to
find a classic car or BMW specialist - talk to them
about the car first to work out their levels of sympathy
for it.
If the judder is coming up through the steering
column between 40-60mph, it might well be the
upper control arm bushes - a notorious weak spot
on E24s. A complete arm with bush is about £40
(you need two), and replacement is a DIY job if you
can wield a socket set accurately, although you do
need the right type and size of ball joint splitter.
Hope this helps

Just like solicitors!  

Munich Legends may not be 6-series only but they know more about them than most.
