| Tl-the contact owns a 2006 bmw roadster z4. the contact stated while driving 40 mph to 70 mph the steering grab and pulls to the right also struggle to keep into a straight line. the vehicle was taken to the dealer who inspected the failure and stated it always does that and there was no failure. the vehicle was also taken to another mechanic shop who stated the vehicle needs an oil separator. this is when you are checking the oil there was yellow stuff on top of the oil (per the contact). the manufacturer was not contacted. the failure mileage was 54,000....mw | |||
