Re: Lowering the X5... advice needed!
just ordered the front springs.
sorry if this is a dumb question but if i order the rear links does it not need to go on a scanner? will the links alone drop the rear?
also would i be ok to lower the front and sort the rear out at a later date?
thanks

Re: Lowering the X5... advice needed!
[quote="andym3"] Why are people wanting to lower a X5? Its a 4x4 it meant to be higher up! :blink: If you want a vehicle that's low to the floor buy a sports car (M3, M5 or a Jap motor) :)) [/quote] to be fair ive always thought that, and still do to a degree but since putting my 20" x6 wheels on i ...

Re: Lowering the X5... advice needed!
does anyone know of anyone in the northwest who can programme the rear air suspension?
cheapest price i have had is for me to supply the springs @ £161.00 then labour of £243 so a total of £404.00
that seemed a little steep to me? opinions please...

Hi level brake light?!?!?!?
Hi,
My brother followed me home the other night and informed me that my high level brake light has a few LED's not working, how can this be fixed?
Ive tried searching but cant make much sense of any of it!
Thanks

They came out and by then it had settled down but the smoke was coming ...

Lowering the X5... advice needed!
Morning,
Basically im looking at lowering the car, not got to be "slammed" but just a decent drop all round. Im a little lost over the rear, im guessing the front is simple springs but how do you lower the rear?Mine doesnt have air suspension i dont think? how would i know?
thanks

4.4 rear silences on 3.0
Long story short but a mate has the rear silences from his 4.4 e53.
Will these fit straight onto my 3.0 petrol?
cheers
