.if your driving and you tap the brakes and you get a shimmy you need the front control arm bushings.prob about 250 in parts.dealers charge anywhere from 2-4 hours labor to replace them.do not pay that.its one of every bmw techs dream job to replace them all day long.but if the strut is leaking should replace it anyway.does it feel like the strut is weak?try shake the tire with the car jacked up.any play when shaking the tire?
