I’m worried because I had my shocks done last year and one of them was fitted poorly and leaked (front right) so got...

Hi All, I've recently bought BMW X3 msport 3.0 2020 and noticed that the drivers side, mostly the front right wheel sits a bit lower then the left one. It's not a huge difference but a few millimeters for sure. I went to the dealership, they tested it and told me that everything is ok with the...

I've just bought a Bilstein B14 coilover kit for my E46 M Sport Touring and as this is the first time putting coilovers on a car, I'm looking for some advice. Other than spring pads, top mounts and front strut reinforcement plates, I'm not clear about what else I'll need to transfer over. Bump...

Hello everyone let me start off by saying we have all seen the many people saying about the car being lower on the drivers side in the UK by up to 10mm however what if your car is sitting lower on the drivers side by more than 10MM? The car is a 318CI SE 2005 cabri After checking the: Shocks...

Hi guys, I'm upgrading my 8 year old 318d Touring M Sport to a 2017 or 2018 4 Series GC (430i or 430d) and, as the ride in my current car is pretty hard on our terrible Glasgow roads (pot hole city!), I'm keen to find a 4GC model with a more forgiving ride. I've been told that 18" rft is more...
