2009 E70 X5 Air spring Issue

[Stash]

All,


noticed yesterday when parked my passenger side back wheel arch was about 10cm lower than the drivers side, i'm guessing the air spring has a leak, when I start the car it goes straight back up, it's a 2009 X5 M-sport with 90k on it, im also guessing i need to replace both at the same time, any idea what brand to go for ? or stick OEM ? Ta.

(P.S i'm in the UK)

Everyone here will recommend Arnott. Myself included. Almost 3 years on mine and zero issues. Do both at the same time, and don’t wait too long as you’ll risk burning out the compressor.

Yeah I read Arnott but they're no so easy to find in th eUK, I have found some & they are £250, that about right ? do i needt o do both ? Ta.

OEM is fine. Arnott is the OEM, AFAIK.


Or did you mean OE BMW?

I replaced both left and right rear suspension air bags with Arnott. Been a year now, no issues. Got them at rockauto.com $180 a piece.
