2013 BMW 520d F10 Vibrates In The Morning

Asked by Simutsira May 14, 2021 at 11:15 AM about the 2013 BMW 5 Series 528i Sedan RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2013 BMW 520d F10 started vibrating in the morning and each time the
car stand for a while during the day. One Mechanic has made me change the
gear-box mounting but the vibrations did not stop.
I have taken it to another mechanic who is insisting that it is the engine
mountings that need changing, the car apparently takes 2 engine mountings.
Has anyone experienced this before or is there something I can do?

vibrations from the engine you can feel in the cabin, be it in the steering wheel, with the car not moving and on, either in gear with the brake on or in park, I would suspect the engine mounts as being the issue.

Update:- My 2013 520d F10 Automatic started some vibrations. When the vibrations started, they would only happen early morning and as the engine heated up, the vibrations went away. Recently, she has started mixing oil and water and strangely enough only in the radiator. The car also has a thundering vibration that rattles the whole car. I noticed the oil just before I took off on a trip. I have covered more than 3000km and the vibrations have picked up some more. I have also noticed an engine oil leak as there is always oil droplets when I park and drive off. Any idea what the problem could be?

It was the engine mounts. Both sides were worn out. Replaced them and the vibrations were gone. Thank you TDolby!
