E36 Squatting!

[L~C~G]

Hi guys.

Now to the forum. Maybe someone can give me so advice here.

I have a 1998 E36 328i with around 265000kms on the clock. She pulls amazingly well for a car of this age and despite all of the quirks still goes like a bat out of hell :excited:

Some time back I noticed that on hard launches and changing between gears it tends to squat down on the left hand side a bit more than on the right. Also if I pull the handbrake up on a hill it lifts more on the left than the right. I have had a few tyre / exhaust guys take a look while its been up on the ramp and they cannot find anything.

I saw on another post that their is a bracket on the diff that can break. Could this possibly be the cause? what will this fix likely cost?

I didnt even realise until this morning that my office is about 5 mins form tune tech so would he be the right guy to go to?

im guessing its a suspension issue... if the diff mount was gone you would hear it moving about when you drive...

automatic negative camber! :excited:

maybe a bent trailing arm from hitting a hard bump or pothole?

not sure bout the car...But Tunetech are amongst the best when it comes to BMW work.

I trust them. Ive used them a few times and will continue to use them.

Ill give them a try when I get the car back.

If your wife is using the car you might be in for a long wait
