Hi Gents

I'm new to this forum, I have recently bought a 530d touring and the rear suspension is really stiff and hard, the car rattles and is quite uncomfortable.

I know it's air and have checked the pump, it comes on and off if you bounce the car.

can anyone give me some pointers please as to what might be wrong, I'm sure it shouldn't be like this?

Thanks

Tom

      Gear box failure

      Morning all, I'm a new member joining the group because I have read the issues in this thread and am also experiencing the same. Mine is. 220d 2 series active tourer from 2016. I also have play in the drive shaft on the near side and some oil around where the drive come out of the gear box. Mine is the aisin 8 speed. Has anyone collectively contacted BMW regarding this matter. I've heard BMW recalled this gearbox in New Zealand, so there is a precedent.

      Running Boards

      Morning Mick Welcome to the Forum First question why not OEM running boards ? You would then know they will fit here are the OEM parts and fixings If you take a look at www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box and it will bring up your model. Then search Body section Once you have all the correct part numbers you can search the Internet for the best supply (remember you need Left and Right parts) You should find parts from BMW Breakers as well as contacting BMW Dealers to see what their prices are like (sometimes a pleasant surprise) Dave

      2017 430d LED headlight beam adjustment for continental.

      Talked to my Brother Inlaw he is on his 6th 5 series estate he said the first 3 (HID) he would switch over as it was so simple, then apparently with the 4th it was a real faff so he never bothered the last two are LED and he has never had an issue and he does most of his mileage in the France Belgium Netherlands Germany and Poland Hope this Helps Dave
