Excessive rear camber 330i E91 LCI touring

Will_460cs · 05-06-2017, 02:24 PM

Hi,

Have just performed a full string alignment of my vehicle, and have one remaining problem.

On the driver side rear there is excessive camber, the camber eccentric bolt will give a range of 2.3 degrees unto about 4 degrees. I have done a visual check and nothing I think is obviously bent.

Thee trailing arm bush in hub is well past its best but I can't see anything else too wrong..

Wondering if the trailing arm bush is the only culprit or if its likely to be anything else..?

Any ideas welcome!

Am planning to change the trailing arm bushes and upper and lower arm bushes once back from holiday..

After looking at M3 arms there doesn't seem to be any great advantage... Rio eference this great article on http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1079383.

Will probably go with Powerflex bushes as I have used them before...
