Didn't know that the E30 had in built chamber??

As for the CAMBER, it's fixed for the E30. And what kind of problem u're having??? Or shud I rephrase that, what kind of problem THE TYRE MAN told u??? Something like this?? 'Lu punye CHAMBER manyak lari oh. Makan tayar lah. Mesti mau taruh gua punya camber kit.' If that's what they tell u, I'll advise u to go to another shop. They know nuts about E30....


Any idea what kind of rear camber reading u're running??

Could worn rear trailing arm and/or other bushes be the culprit.

lotsa stuff to consider in dealing with the camber

first off, it is fixed, secondu need to know history, if you got the car like this or happened recently?

i remember the sagging part, but didnt really looked at it proper

you could change all the rubbers that has connections to the trailing arms, change absorbers, springs, abs mounting

one thing to check would be the rubbers that lined the springs, if both the top and bottom are there, also they have to be off same sizes- bmw made thicker, and thinner ones by 1,2,3,4,mm offsets, so a slight difference can go along way

also there is a possibility of arms bengkok !!!!!

maybe fabian can give more input on this

is it possible for the swing arm to bent if there wasnt any accident accured?
fyi, this car is a 1 car owner only(my dad) ... my mechanic says that i should change the rear camber.. but it seem like i must order it through the internet n the price is quite expensive.. so any ideas guys? :dunno:
