It sounds like you need a front end alignment.

u need ur alignment fixed because u screwed it up by going over a big hole
low air pressure
its called an alignment, and most shops will do it for around 60 dollars..... yes, even on a bmw
U either have low air pressure [on one or more tires]OR the Caster got knocked out of it's setting [wheel alignment OR U have a RADIAL TIRE PULL - IF U switch the 2 front tires side to side %26 it pulls the other way - THEN U have a Radial tire pull !
when it goes to one side dont it mean the wheel bearings are going on one side, dont hold me to it but get it checked out anyway, I'm no mechanic either but when my car was having an MOT recently i borrowed my sisters car and this happened , and it turned out to be the wheel bearings on the right hand side , good news is that it doesn't cost that much to put right.
change your steering rack
your beamer may be a Democrat ... trade it in !
if your a mechanic you should know that your alignment sounds bad. If it drifts to the left while driving that's usually what it is. You can get that done for a fairly decent price at any auto shop
you prolly need an allignment
switch your front tires side to side and see if it pulls the other way. If it does, it's your tires. Also, make sure you have to proper air pressure. Check for sticking brakes also. A dragging brake on one side will cause a pull. Check your tie rods and ball joints for slop. Did you do a 4 wheel alignment on it? You may have a problem with the rear.
You probably need a wheel alignment. Not too much $
frozen caliper



bent tie rod



axle
sounds like it needs an alignment...or power steering fluid
You most likely have a bad tire. Rotate the tires front to back and see if the pulling persists. If not, save for two new tires.
Wheel alignment



I get $49.95



that should be all you should need, unless something is bent or loose in the suspension/steering.
