2005 X5 4.8is leaning...

noticed that the passenger side of the X5 is about 1/2"to1" lower than the drivers side. measured about an 1" lower to the bottom of the front skirt, and 1/2" lower from the top of the tire to the bottom of the inside fender. Is this normal or do I need to take to the dealer??

it's common, but not normal. I believe it is classified under the "Self Leveling Suspension Inactive" error.

shit.... better get it back to the stealership! Good thing I still have warranty. Man, my warranty will be up in october, and I am seriously considering selling it soon after as I don't want to pay for all this shit that keeps breaking/failing!! Too many things so far, my old 02 4.4i was like this too!
