Crash and bang suspension - E93

Recommended Posts

Hi, 

As per title, since installing (used) Bilstein shocks in my E93, the right hand side of the car has sat lower, feels as though it is bottoming out over certain (but not all) bumps, and around corners even at slow speed. Before I continue to throw money at it, does anyone with more experience know which part failures are most likely to exert these symptoms? Top mount failure, spring or the strut itself?  

I've already replaced the end-links with adjustable variants, and had the caster bushes replaced, but neither have helped. 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Are the spring perch rubbers in properly? Lower shock mount in the control arm bolted in and not ripped in two?

Left hand side spring perch rubber is definitely in better condition, RF has a tear in it so will replace as that won't be helping, will check back right lower mount tonight. Seems to sit lower in both the front, and the rear on the right hand side. :(
