Hi,

Yazmeen is right.Mine was converted to normal absorbers, to me, its more reliable, handles better, and you can do countless upgrades to your suspension and improves your handling.

I suppose if it can be done to my car, then its also possible for yours. Just make sure that you have a well experience mechanic to carry out the work.

I can recommend you to my mechanic, very well experience in German & other continental cars. He has all the right tools including the softwares for all BMWs

Private message me if you want to know more.....:listen:

I would prefer using normal absorbers but finally ended with " wired " one fixed to my 728 which is very expensive. In the first place ,having problem to fix the normal one because the ori rear coil spring could not lock in .....the shaft is slightly shorter. not sure if the item is correctly supplied to me . .....my mistake for not getting opinion from forumers first.

The cheaper and better replacement would be a set of customised absorbers from Titans. These absorbers can be set for performance or comfort and they can be serviced. In the long run, it's much cheaper. A set of 4 is around RM2.8K only.

Can we get feedback from Titans users ......pleasssse share here .

I have been using Titans on my E38 for 8 months now and have no complains. What Titans does is customised absorbers and use the old springs. They compress the spring to lower the car. Initial I had some problems with the springs where it was making noise but now titan has retified it. the good thing about titan is they are father and son team and always gives personal attention. Really friendly chaps and very knowledgeable it what they do. I will definately recommend them.

I believe bro. Your mechanic appreciates your car. The additional 10% is for premium as he is buying a well maintained car.

Now, i need to go rob a bank to get me a E39, would love to play around with it. Talking about good investment strategy, hahaha
