4.8 Front Air Suspension

[britcon]

Got the same clunking sound from mine when shock was low. Try lifting the vehicle higher with the " off-road " setting, and run over same bumps....I bet the noise disappears.
As to your comment concerning quality, I agree 100%. I love this truck !... acceleration, handling, braking.....all great, however, it is killing me with " small " items.....window mechanism, door handle carrier, cracked temp. sensor housing on lower rad hose, suspension rattles / bushings, air-strut, seat heater.....and on and on ! I don't see another BMW in my future with issues like this.

This is exactly what happens to mine.

Here's another thing that makes me curious. Ok, so I know I have a leak on my front eft since I did the soap and water test. It so happens that something triggered the "SELF LEVEL SUSP INACT" error. I have a GT1 to reset this but i decide to just leave it there. With the self level suspension inactive, it seems my suspension does not fall overnight as it does when self level is active. I've left it for a week sitting in the garage and there is no noticable hat gives?
