Vibration when braking at high speeds on my BMW 3

Hi all, I have a 2005 BMW 3 and have noticed a slight vibration when braking at high speeds, like 120 km/h or more. I wonder if this could be due to the front silentblocks. I have checked the brakes and discs, which are in good condition, and the wheels are balanced and the steering aligned. Also, when braking hard, from the outside you can see how the front wheels make a strange movement. Has anyone had a similar experience or know what could be causing this problem?

Summary of the thread

A 2005 BMW 3 experiences slight vibrations when braking at high speeds, despite having checked brakes, discs, wheel balance, and steering alignment. The issue might be due to worn front suspension components, such as control arm bushings or ball joints, which can cause vibrations and unusual wheel movement. It is recommended to have these parts inspected by a mechanic for safety.

Check the condition of your front suspension components, particularly the control arm bushings and ball joints. Worn or damaged components can cause vibrations and unusual wheel movement during braking. If you're unsure, it's best to have a mechanic inspect these parts for safety reasons. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!
