2) This review experienced 3 issues. Did you have any of them?
a. Steering wheel sensor problems b/c the car was lowered. His power steering/active steering shut off because the sensors were reading implausible values. He had to go to BMW to have it recalibrated
b. Too low - possibly because of low spring rates for the weight of this 335. More scraping on parking ramps than before.
c. Clunking noises from the dampers, even after Bilstein replaced the 1st set under warranty
3) Overall, is the car more comfortable than the stock M sport suspension in the "Normal" mode? While I'm looking forward to the sport seetting, the increased comfort day-to-day is a huge, huge factor for me too. |
I have B14, now with linear springs and camber plates. Will answer as they share the same foundations...
1- It's a low kit
2- Yes it is low, I haven't had electric shit fail because mine doesn't have it? Damper quality is good- I've had these for 60k km without issue, have had other brands of shocks and the Bilsteins typically last the longest
3- Yes
Linear springs made a big difference for me, the progressives are better for urban only driving, but the moment the roads open up you would appreciate linear.
