Steering wheel shakes at 50 - 60 mph without braking. Shakes even mor eat 40 mph when decelerating (exiting a parkway for example). Have replaced calipers, rotors, brake pads and sensor both sides in front, installed new tires and had wheel alignment. Still shakes in steering wheel and even feel strong vibration in passenger side car seat.

It is most likely that the thrust arms and/or the thrust arm bushings are worn and will require replacement. If the bushings are to be replaced, I like to upgrade to the 607 bushings from the 750il cars. There are designed for heavier loads and last longer.
