2019 F48 engine slight vibration on cold start
Hey guys. Long time lurker, first time poster.
my 2019 F48 sDrive (gas) with 37k miles/60k km recently have been creating a slight vibration noise when I start the car up after a cold start and I drive off immediately. it will go away almost immediately after when the car is warmed up, no more vibration noise. Can be heard, but not to the point where you can feel it inside of the car. Any idea what this might be? Seems like engine mounts do have a tendency to go on these cars, could this be a worn engine mount then? Thanks a lot in advance guys |

Got exactly the same on mine but it's only done 30k. I have my phone in a holder attached to the dash which vibrates for about 20-30 seconds after engine start (even on a warm day).
Once it disappears, it doesn't come back. Weird. |

We could be facing the same problem, maybe just on different scale. Wonder what this vibration could be… |

Talking about engine mounts, you have one on the top and another below the engine. It's easy to see if the top engine mount is gone. On the passenger side, on the side of the engine, you can't miss the cracked engine mount and will see some oil spits here and there.

678hug, maybe it’s the same problem on your car too. After all engine mounts do have a bit of a… reputation on the F48 |

Checked mine today. All looked fine. My vibration is very minor but was noticeable from the day i picked the car up (3.5 years old at that point). Most of the time i don't even notice it and may just be me being picky.

Is your vibration getting worse? Mine’s been making itself more audible the past few days. There’s definitely a vibration that isn’t there before. Just wondering, how many miles your car had when you bought it?

I don't want to scare you, but this could be potentially a life-threatening issue. Please, go to a shop and check it ASAP.

Side note: This BMW service agreement has ridiculous oil interval of 30 000 KM. Will refresh oil this autumn after I have driven 15k km (oil was also serviced this february) |

Also, the irony of our situations mrpingu… I book an appointment for the repair for vibration next week and my service advisor says he’ll change the brakes too as they’re almost due (CBS says I have 1400mi/2200km on the rear pads left) how very coincidental |

Just got my car back from the dealer… engine mount and gearbox mount was replaced. car drives smooth like butter now
Also noticed that starting up the engine and auto stop start is also way smoother than it used to be on the old mounts (even long before the old mounts were worn)… safe to assume this is because of the new engine mount design? From my understanding BMW did revise the design for the F48 engine mounts. |

I don’t think it is because new design if you read here, they are not convinced: https://www.northamericanmotoring.com/forums/f55-f56-hatch-talk-2014/339406-f56-cooper-s-upper-engine-mount-replacement-8.html?ispreloading=1 |

While there have been several iterations of that component already (more rubber, fluid, not fluid, etc.), probably is because they are brand new.

Obviously this is a design fault but it is not listed anywhere So probably end up paying either in cash or in time… |
