Uh - oh: BMW may be on last legs

Do you think? Just passed 295 K. Still runs good but the front end is starting to wander a bit under the high winds on the bridges around here. I'm thinking that and my shimmy on hard braking both might just be due to loose struts.

I had a Dodge Omni for a while as a beater and I replaced the struts at about 165 K and it got rid of a vibration problem. Lot going on with the struts.

I found a price on-line of $505 apiece. Uh - oh.
