I have a 2008 BMW 328i 6-speed manual Coupe,,
The car only has 77,000 miles, but I noticed a lot of body roll mostly when I'm going high speeds around curves. What would be the best fit to tighten this up maybe some aftermarket rear sway bars? I would think this would be a little bit tighter being a Coupe, but I guess it's not because it's not the sport model and I don't have the sport seats! Any suggestions on tightening up the suspension and body roll is greatly appreciated thank you🙂 |

depends of your budget.
For a 328 I would stick on M3 part upgrade, like arms. https://www.ecstuning.com/b-assemble...31306775098kt/ polyurethane bushing , like powerflex. You can do the subframe, swaybar and diff bushing. |

H&R made a nice upgrade for cheap, but dont know if they still make it.
note this is not an easy job. You need to drop the rear subframe a couple of inches to remove the bar. |

you might need an inspection on the rear parts or alignment.
I dont feel like Ive a lot of body roll and pushing 535whp on a wagon, and kept the OEM sway bar and OEM bushing. (I should have change it since I was ''there'' but didnt..) I did do subframe and diff bushing. |

Hey oVeRdOsE!
I found the problem, my Rear Lower Trailing Control Arm driver side broke almost completely off some how! I was wondering why she was swinging in the rear! I have not hit anything so how did that happen, I only have 77k miles!? So is this a simple take off and put the new part on, any pressing, torquing, etc? Also I just had it in aligned 4-wheel two weeks ago and four brand new tires, will I have to get it aligned again once I put the part on? Thank you! ![]() photo below Attachment 1 Last edited by BimmerGuyHere; Yesterday at 08:13 PM.. |
