Steering shaft clunk - is there a TSB or solution yet?
My car has 47k on it and is exhibiting the steering shaft clunk when parked at at low speeds. I can feel it clunk when turning in a parking lot, and if I rock the wheel left & right while moving.
Dealer said they tried 5 other X1s on the lot and they all do it. Mine seems to have gotten worse over the last 6 months, however.
Is anyone aware of a service bulletin from BMW regarding this? If so, does the bulletin say it is a normal noise, or are people getting steering shafts replaced and the noise/feeling goes away?
It's at the point on mine where I can feel it every time I drive the car, and it seems like there is a bit of play in the steering now. Getting annoying, I hope I can get it corrected before the factory warranty runs out.
