Weird Noise Al Low Speed Turns

BMW2002tii · 04-27-2011, 05:19 PM

Hi everyone, I'm new here but an enthusiast of the brand since 1994. Hope someone can help me with this.
I bought my 08 E92 M3 6 spd. MT about 8 months ago and I been experiencing a weird noise. Dont know if this is normal but it sounds like a buzzing and i feel it in the back tires, it feels like when the ABS engages but softer.
This happens when turning at low speed and it increases in slippery floors like the under ground parkings, the sound or the feel is like the back tires were rubbing. It happens at wide and close turns, thats why i discard the front wheels rubbing, besides is no marks of rubbing. Take it to alignment but this doesn't solve the problem.
thnak you guys for helping a new member.
