I'd recommend going to my www.bmwdiy.info link below and looking at the Suspension Survey page. I have 2 links off there which might be good references as well. In general, it's a medium to semi-difficult procedure so most should leave it up to the pros unless you have the right tools and someone there which know-how. |

Big warning: For those with xenons, remember to disconnect the headlight autoleveling sensors before you begin work. There is one on the rear axle and one on the front - both are on the passenger side of the car (at least on my MY2000 540): http://www.corystarr.com/billp/spring_shock/index.htm Pic of the bolt to remove for the rear autoleveling sensor: http://www.corystarr.com/billp/sprin...es/image82.htm Bill Last edited by BillP; 09-25-2004 at 09:34 AM. |
