Self Levelling Suspension

Post by Denis O » Tue Feb 15, 2011 5:56 pm

Do all E53 X5's come with self leveling rear suspension? When I finally get round to finding an acceptable 3.0D I shall be using it for towing a 19ft speedboat and would want the self levelling.

If the diesels don't come with it as standard then how do I tell if it's got it?

Do they?

Only ask this as I was talking to a customer the other day and he had an E53 on which he had to replace a rear spring as there was no rear air suspension.

Any other thoughts from anyone? :?

AFAIK they are standard across the range (could be completely wrong :lol: ) - they have been replaced when they go wrong by owners. Could be one of them? :idunno:
