Anyone replaced rear drive shafts? The J&R have bad reviews.
On carparts4less for £150 each. Any good?

Re: Self levelling system failure warning.
Is the compressor loud? Can you Cleary hear it?
Mine was on the loud side. (Can't hear my new AMK compressor)
Took it apart and the piston seal was worn and wouldn't make enough compression.

Rear drive shaft.
Need a new rear off side drive shaft. CV is on its way out.
Seen J&R drive shaft for £90 posted anyone used them before?
Or what do you recommend other than BMW.
Cheers

Interface cable.
Hello. I have INPA and bmw DIS etc. I used this a lot on my e36 m3 evo, I've just got a obd2 interface cable from eBay but it will not connect no matter what I try. Anyone able to point me in the right direction or can post a link to the cable I need? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Switched-BMW-INPA-K ...

Sod that for a laugh. If this happens to me, I'm capping that off and be done with it.

Clicking from rear driver wheel. YouTube vid inside.
My car has started to make this click noise. Totally random and not all the time. On or off throttle, rolling, cornering can start it, but also stop it if it's clicking in a straight line. Like I said it's random and not constant. I've had the disc off and checked shoes. All looks good and so did ...

Re: 7 seater tyre pressures vs 5 seater
Just 90% of what I read on the web. 90% say run the maximum recommended tyre pressure.
I've done that for a year now on new tyres and have even wear across all 4 tyres.
Is it harsh? Yes it is but, I'm sure all 20" wheels with rubber band run flats are.

Re: 7 seater tyre pressures vs 5 seater
I've read a lot about this and everyone says put in maximum pressure.
I run 2.9 bar rear and 2.5 front. I have even tyre wear and it's 5 seater.

Re: X5 se and sport suspension heights
Ok thanks for clearing that up. Don't know to if to buy lowering springs or raise the rear now.
Think it will be too harsh low.

Re: X5 se and sport suspension heights
Cheers looks mine is low on the rear.
I have 20" wheels steel spring on front and rear bags, both heights should be 732mm. I have 742mm front and 705 rear. So wrong springs on front and lowered on rear
Think I'll make some adjustable links for the rear and Jack it up.
