Everything right beside last step. Don’t require to removed those arm at the end. You just need heavy pry bar to push whole carrier down
Yeah I did try that but I couldn’t hold the pry bar down and push the bolt in at the same time. Thank you for the tip! 👍🏼
@@friendlymechanic9778 yeah, in this case batter to have assistance close by. Good job!
did the car throw chassis stabilization? if not what code it threw?
I have a 2016 740i G11 after getting chassis function restriction car squatted on all 4 wheels but was drivable. i checked fuses per the manual and changed the relay and compressor. When the car is powered by opening the door or starting the car I hear clicking form the compressor. 3 months ago had both front air struts changed at a independent shop. Can you give me some advice as of now car is almost sitting on the garage floor. Any advice I appreciate in advance thanks.
What kind of compressor did you install? Was it OEM? used or new?
@@friendlymechanic9778 I ordered a new compressor from the same place you ordered your air strut from. UPDATE!!! I tested all connections in the trunk related to the compressor with a multimeter starting with the relay. I found that on the distribution block by the trunk battery I was getting a reading of at least 11.8v on all fuses except one. So I replaced the distribution block/pyro fuse. Started the car and after 10 mins It aired up in like 1-2 min. That was a week ago. So far so good. Anyone who would like to see I watched this video th-cam.com/video/V01dIEHsR-0/w-d-xo.html
Hi bud
I have the same issue on a bmw 730d G11. I have replaced the left front leaking air spring. I can not the car level and on the correct ride height. Using ISTA, i have tried callibration, etc. Currently, the right side of the car is way higher than the left side. Do you have any tips or ideas ?
Once you inflate the air springs with ISTA it doesn’t have to be perfect. Just erase the codes. Take it out of service mode and test drive it. Within 2-5 miles the ride height will adjust. It usually adjusts in the first two miles for me. I think that’s 4-8km.
Can I have the link to the part (shock) you purchased?

This is the item number for eBay.
I have a 2016 750 with the same problem,so my question is the after market part it’s worth it or no because I want to replace mine
So far it’s been working good. And if it functions the way it’s supposed to and was a fraction of the price I think it was a good deal.
@@friendlymechanic9778 ok thanks man for answer my question , I’m going to look on eBay because all them that i saw hits the 900’s
Wow X5 E70 air bag replacement is much easier.
100% agree
How’s the new shock holding up ?
Still good no issues.
Rats in the works ugh, I did see my friend go to change his air filter and inside was no filter just chewed up mess and 5 baby rats, eyes still closed, Can anything be done on a bmw that doesn't require taking the car apart lol, props to you!!
I was going to say put air the tires but then I remembered some Alpinas have a cover with a lock 😂
lol@@friendlymechanic9778
I would’ve hung up the phone as soon as I heard the price. 😳
Was not expecting that price either. The eBay part came in clutch!
the out of control mark up is just out of hand.
I agree, hopefully prices become reasonable again.
