Can anyone spot anything wrong with this? This is my left (driver) rear side and this corner seems to squat down when I make quick right hand turns. It's pretty spongey and almost seems like a tire is flat. On Sunday I even pulled over to check my rear tire because I thought something was wrong.

It should not be sitting on bump stop? Is that a static shot?

Shock is toast?

I jacked up the rear end to take a look at the shock and snapped this picture. I sent this picture to Terra and he said that he thinks my shock mount is destroyed and that the bump stop shouldn't be that high. I have no idea what a normal one looks like so I have zero knowledge on this. I'm assuming my shock is done for.

That's what I noticed as well. Agh, time for new suspension.

Votes? H&R Sport Cup?

I absolutely love my H&R Cup Kit with the race springs, so either Sport or Touring would get my vote.

Yesterday, I almost took a crowbar to the windshield but decided instead to rip through the gears to relieve some frustration and try to convince myself that this car may be worth keeping. After spending $2000 a little over a month ago on A/C repairs, my A/C is behaving like it is low on refrigerant again, blowing warm air out of the passenger side vents. I'll call the shop that did the work in a bit, but right now I'm really let down that BMW can't build A/C systems that are reliable. Or maybe my 0/3 track record when it comes to BMW and A/C is a sign from God that I should buy a Ford.:mob:mad:mad:mad:mad:mad:mad:mad

I've heard nothing but good things about them. I'd get the race springs.. but I wouldn't be able to fit in my driveway..lol. So I'll be going the Sport route.

Sorry about your frustration...hope something works out,

My opinion only Ford would not be my choice for replacing the Ultimate Driving Machine.
