Lowering springs on Z4 E89

[sable81]

hi all,

i'm thinking of changing springs on my Z4 E89, will lowering springs (not considering coilovers due to price...) affect the dynamic suspension setting (i think it's the EDC) on the car?? a bit noob on this.

any recommended workshops to do this and any brands (H&R etc)??

hope someone can advise...thank u!

Re: Lowering springs on Z4 E89

cupholders - they told me they replaced the front air-con panel and still the problem occurs from time to time....if i had bought the Z4 after 1 Sept, i'd have a brand-new Z4 by now cos they cannot repair the problem...! ur aircon problem, izzit the air-con lights will flicker and then cannot switch on after that? wonder if it's the same cos my 20i is the first batch , ur 28i is also first batch?

leonardlp - can lower...but not too much. change house so car can fit in?? i not so rich...

ac323 - replied PM regarding springs...

Yup mine was one of the first batches. My flickered at first, then it stopped working. Worked perfectly after replacing the electrical unit. Hopefully it doesn't die on me again..

Times are bad. Sell the car and buy a bicycle.

how long did they take to replace the electrical unit? is it located at the front panel? they told me they replaced front panel where air-con is, hope they meant electrical unit. ..cos the problem still occurs from time to time...although much less than previously

sell car change bike, if its this kind of bike, then maybe...
