Back end is shot, according to MOT tester, and recently noticed severe inside wear on both rear tyres.
So, what is best option for buying new suspension for rear end ?? Any recommendations appreciated. Ideally buy it in UK, as car is currently enjoying fine weather in Algarve, so will need to get units fitted there. Thanks, Big Ant

Hi big ant,

Your name looks a bit 'familiar'!! wink

Bit vague saying rear suspension is shot, do you know which components are finished now? is it all of them?!! once the car is back, get it checked out to see what needs replacing and renewing and take it from there. If you look at a very good 5 series forum, no doubt you'll see plenty of us Touring owners who've changed and replaced what you'll need and can ask for advice etc!

cheers, Dennis!
