  1. Hey Dave, Once again thanks for the response. The car is going into the garage on Monday for a few jobs to get done and also look at the suspension. Fingers crossed it will be a simple repair. I will update once I know exactly what. Pray to God that it's a small repair as this car is definitely going to be a money pit lol ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
  2. Hey Greydog, Your response is much appreciated. Yes the car has been fitted with a set of coilovers unfortunately. I asked a Mechanic in Belfast and they seemed totally oblivious to why this has happened or how to fix it (morons over here unfortunately). I was hoping I can revert to original rear springs without a massive job and heard about top strut mounts can fail when fitting these stupid coilover kits. I have money to cover repairs on the car, but don't want to be spending massive amounts on this one issue if I can avoid it?
  3. Hey everyone, I have recently viewed a 2007 E90 335D and paid for a pre purchase inspection. Upon the mechanic inspecting the vehicle, he has noticed one of the rear coil springs is not sitting at the correct angle. I am confused as to whether the coil spring simply needs reseated or if it could have potentially caused damage above the mount for the spring. I have attached a photo of the spring. Any help would be appreciated?
