Just purchased a 2012 M37x a month ago. First three weeks no issues. Third week, noticed a shudder/rumble coming from front when turning slowly at very slow speeds (e.g. in parking garage or turning into a driveway). Steering is not locked. Any thoughts? Dealer service rep dismissed as normal and related to x drive. I asked for a mechanic to accompany me on a short test drive. Mechanic heard the noise and also said normal but related to electronics governing hydraulic pump assisting power steering. Also said M35 was much worse. I tend to disbelieve both. The car did not make this noise for the first three weeks. Any thoughts?
 
problem seems to have solved itself

Never figured out what was causing the problem but I must assume it had something to do with a power steering valve sticking or not being able to supply fluid at slow speed turns. In any event, completely happy now and enjoying the car.
