BMW X1 Jerking on Slow Acceleration and Low RPMs

Kayvoh87 · 12-26-2023, 01:16 PM

Hello

I have a 2011 BMW X1 18i with an N46 engine. The car has a grinding and shaking sensation that you feel when you change gears. If you're cruising gently (on low RPM) and then gently accelerate the car, hesitate and then sometimes jerk before it pulls away.

Need help on this one....

Unlikely but verify that your tire pressures are all good, especially if you're using run-flats.
Just had similar symptoms last month and it was due to low tire pressure in my case.
