I know this subject has been probably covered many times, but need some advise on which bushes to fit to the rear of my lower arm on the front suspension on my 318i Touring.
I fitted ECP standard bushes last year but they seem to be too flexible I think - might be casuing the tramlining/wandering I get on some road surfaces. I'm now thinking about fitting poly bushes instead and don't know whether to fit M3 offset ones or just standard style.
Is there any advantage in using the M3 ones, or not?
Any info would be great..............

I'm going to be fitting the powerflex offset M3 front bushes today, apparently they improve the steering feel. I'll keep you posted on the difference in handling

This solution sounds good, My car also suffers from tramlining etc.
What do you need to inform the garage when you get the tracking adjusted after fitting the new M3 control arm bushes?
My current GSF control arm bushes have lasted 3 years and are now perished.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts on these, need to get something organised for my Touring asap.charlE30 wrote:I'm going to be fitting the powerflex offset M3 front bushes today, apparently they improve the steering feel. I'll keep you posted on the difference in handling
