Hi Eduan
Welcome to the Forum
First place to check is Sub Frame mounting Bushes, on a 19 year old car they will be tired. In Order to check rear suspension bushes the Air suspension has to be deflated not a difficult task but essential. Again I would expect a 19 year old car to have a lot of wear and is probably in need of a refresh. Tip if refreshing the suspension get new camber bolts for adjustment mark the old ones position with a bit of Tippex so it all goes back as original.
If the suspension is good then drive shafts, diff, Propshaft are next for checking

At 45 mph my BMW will start to shimmy it seems like in the rear right tire also going down Interstate mashing the gas sometimes it will do it as well.It had a bent rim at one point in time and that's when it seemed like it started could it be a baron transmission mount or the rim still might be bent any information would be grateful.co could it be a fuel pump going bad or could it be the tires I'm at a loss hereMaybe a CV axle never experienced this with a car like this before but like I said it all started when I hit a hole and it bent my rims had them fixed but don't know if it messed up like a bearing or something like that thanks.

Morning Steve
Welcome to the Forum
Quick look at realoem shows both 155A and 185A alternators were used for your car Part Number 12317521178 is the 185A was OEM
The 155A shows as a Remanufactured replacement alternative. Realoem also states that the Aluminium Screws are use once so will need replacing part number 12310392568 set of 4 shows
Good Luck
Dave

My E53 2006 started doing exactly the same thing today for no apparent reason. Any chance you managed to find the source of the knocking?
