Minor repair turns into nightmare

[ChrisBrand]

What i thought was going to be a simple Diff bush repair turned out to be something much worse. Heres some pics to show. And by the way the Diff bush is fine.

Good thing you picked up on that. There are quite a couple of fixes for that. Just make sure you don't skimp on this one please.

I am wondering is this what the subframe issue on the e46 328i's look like? (Or at least when it has become an issue)

Luckily I got the guys from Zeemax looking well after her. They wil install some support plates and fix her up good.

Thanks Jandre, seeing as the funds are not within my wallet and coming from someone else i need a good reason why theres a hole under my car.

Print the discussion and hand it to the donator. Tell them that spinning has nothing to do with it.

Hehe, thanks. Thats just the dust creating the illusion that its clean. Must be the way the light hits it.

The best way is probably what they are gonna do. They did it to the M3 that was parked next to my car. Strip the entire back of the car. Weld reinforced plates in place. Paint the neccesary protection on. Reassemble. And that should do it.
