Severe wobble when driving at any speed, had the wheel balanced and they are ok but it feels like the steering wheel is going tocome off in my hand. Also delayed reaction through the steering. Any ideas !!!

Get the car up on axle stands or a ramp somewhere. Sounds as if
something like a track control arm may have broken or come adrift if it
is happening at all speeds. Have a good poke around with a torch, any
problems will become immediately apparent.

Hi m8, if your Severe wobble is coming from the front end ,then it is more likely to be your upper & lower thrust arms. ------------- E34 M30 535i SPORT
