[QUOTE="fabianyee, post: 387497, member: 6"] This problem has been discussed countless time... The BMW 4 and 6 cylinder engines are built to lean towards the right to lower the centre of gravity... This works well for decades for LHD cars in europe where the driver would be on the left countering engine weight on the right... So when the time comes to produce RHD version, do you think they would reverse the configuration to lean the engine the left??? No... So for the RHD, the engine weight would be right biased, coupled with the driver's weight, thus contributing to the fact that the right is slightly lower.. And don't try to lower the tyre pressure on the left... It's dangerous especially if you do go at speed often.. [/QUOTE]
