I have noticed that if I have had my front end on jackstands and move the front wheels lock to lock by hand I get the chattering you describe.

I recently changed the front brake hoses on my son's 92 740. To make access easier I moved the front wheels all the way to the left to do the right hose and then moved them all the way to the right for the other one. After that the chatter was evident.

It acted like there was air in the system. I parked the car on some loose gravel and at idle I slowly rotated the steering wheel lock to lock three or four times which helped reduce the amount of chatter. Further driving time eliminated it completely.

I did not get any shaking (wheel shimmy?) at any time though.
