If the front end of your BMW is feeling "bouncy" or "loose" it can likely be attributed to blown or worn strut insert. The purpose of the strut insert is to dampen the recoil of the coil spring as you travel over dips and bumps in the road. Some signs of failed struts include knocking sounds, leaks, poor road holding, or broken brackets

Nice ordered bilstein suspension for my Z4 that arrives tomorrow. Seems like a lot of work so I’ll just pay the mechanic to install 😂

Is there a lock nut on the axle bolt?

Love the video thanks for sharing ... How do you stop the shock from spinning as you tighten the top nut?

@matthewcarson9347 4 жыл бұрын

For anyone wondering, you need a Strut nut socket which allows you to put in an Allen Key to keep the shock from spinning, I think it's 19 mm for the size, found here: www.fcpeuro.com/products/19mm-strut-nut-socket-cta-3039x04

@@matthewcarson9347 long shot getting an answer on this old vide.. Have the strut socket. Took off my front struts and lo an behold, the shock rod is solid and doesn't have a hole for an Allen key. Any idea how to secure the shock from spinning to remove/retorque the top nut?
