Hi I have a 1997 328is. First of all, the white puff of smoke is a headgasket right, second of all when im doing about 50-70mph or so and I turn the wheel just barely to the left(just enough to maybe switch lanes on the highway) the car starts to shake but after I turn more than that it stops, it only does this at those speeds too? Another thing is one of my brake lights wouldnt work so I changed it and now it works sometimes and sometimes it doesnt. When it doesnt work the inside screen tells me brakelight failure, but it only does it once in a while? Another thing is when I drive the car any distance at all, right after I shut it of the car ticks for a little while no matter how hot it is, the ticking sounds like its coming from under the car, any ideas?

I've had the same problem with my tail lights. Bmw's take a special bulb. You can't get them at a regular car repair store. Goto your local bmw dealer. There isnt anything that isn't special about bmws. :-)

I am also having the same problem, but the screen sometimes reads brake light failure and or Tail light Failure. I replace the blubs, and it is ok for a month then it is back at it again.
