may have new springs on? need settling in, are may and dont want to worry you have a prob with the suspension you would think it would be a soft ride, my dads X5 isnt a hard ride
-
welcome to the site, brake is catching? is it the pads worn down, perhaps just need a clean?
-
suspension is wierd thing, well not really but im sure you get me lol on my old car i had it lowered on apex 30mm springs and it felt alot smoother<--evan the mrs said this!! not saying lower the car but differnt springs might help, have you got run flat tyres? ive heard they give a very bumpy ride and not many bmw (and mini) owners like them and dont keep them. ive also heard some people ask not to have them when ordering new cars
-
my first car was a corsa 'b'' and some girl i worked with went into the back of me. the spare tyre had burst and wouldnt come out of the well!!! she still blamed me for it :lol: i was waiting to pull out of a junction!

you will be surprised at how much damage can be hidden behind bumpers i do bodywork on cars and ive had cars for little scracthes/ scuffs because some one hit it goin slow, but after a good look the boot well has been bent, impact beams can get bent easily. plastic has a memory so goes back into shape easily

thats worth a try only thing i can think of is it could be one of the sensors on its way out? and not showing up yet, could be worth getting some one to scan the ecu if you no any one with one?
-
sensors are usually a plug and play item, are they color coded? should be just a case of taking the bumper off (not hard at all) and changing the sensor over. welcome to the forum to, pass the word around :D
