Steering noise / Rough Suspension ?

Hi there,

I have a 740D F01, 2011 and I think I have two problems ( or just going mad ) :

1 - front left ( driver ) tire sometimes seems that its regenerative braking ( like in a Prius ) under decelerating, harder than the others. car doesn't judder or anything, it seems there is some friction there

2 - when almost at a standstill, the steering wheel seems to go bezerk - tiny micro left-right-left-right-left-right on its own - you cannot see it ( really tiny adjustments ) but you can def feel it

3 - steering wheel was never ... how do I say, smooth - seems that I was driving a rough surface all the time and it seems that it came from the front wheels.

So I took the 4 wheels out for balancing, one as cracked and two had a bump, got all of them repaired, rebalanced, steering aligned and ditched the run flats for Michelin Pilots.

Car drives much better but :

1 - the micro self adjusting still does it

2 - when turning hard, seems a shimmer or slight vibration on the steering wheel and when decelerating - not under acceleration or coasting, just seems something is off / shimming / light braking when you take the foot of the pedal.

Any ideias ?
