KW V3 suspension - help
Front Right
Front Left Hi guys, Need some help. Recently my shop installed the KW V3's for my 1M. The height drop (tyre to fender) around the vehicle was about 1 inch all round. For the settings however, I noticed the adjustment for the 'Front Right' and 'Front Left' differed by about 20mm. Meaning the 'Front Left' was set to the lowest height adjustment while the 'Front Right' still had about 20mm to go. Considering the engine is on the right side of the car this seems logical to me, but I need to know if its normal. Anyone with KW's or experience please share. Thanks guys |

There are plenty of guys with KW's on here. Wait a bit for a reply from one of them. I would definitely have the car corner balanced. Do you have the alignment specs from after the install? We can't tell where you live but I'd bring it to a good mechanic with the equipment to corner balance the car. A BMW racing team would be best.

my ex 135 with 16,000km's (till today new owner with 25,000+km) got KW's, and now 1M with 14,000km's... got no issues with KW's...
probably front left was not properly locked...
