Posting this on someone else's behalf - it's in a 320i Touring :mad:

Time travel device...?

Maybe it's some sort of self levelling system.

Have they followed where the pipes go to...? Might be a good start.

Giles.

Looks like self leveling as Geeman said, option on the tourings. But rare as.

Self-levelling device did come to my mind, but since it's a 320i Touring, I thought it can't be.

Thanks for the quick replies guys :thumb:

Hi Roy

Many thanks for the bits - only got back home about 1/2 hour ago - long story :eek:

Gorgeous cars you have there - if you run out of space, I'll happily 'look after' one of them :wink:

As for the self levelling device, well, it's very unusual, so don't think many here might have seen it, and hardly anyone will know how to test it.

You might as well take it off anyway....
