Only thing I've heard is that the left side is higher, so that when the driver sits in the car (left hand drive), then the weight is more balanced from side to side.

Of course for us right hand drivers.... Laughing

what a timely post. I was just noticing the same thing today. was wondering if my springs were sagging. that and/or I need to go on a diet.

jokes aside thought, its "normal"?

....try measuring the difference with and without a driver in the car...i believe its normal bcos not only one person is experiencing the issue:) most of us...let's one one we gather our cars and look at the backside and check who got the most "senget" ass muahhahahaa....

the side that's sticking up is actually opposite the driver. wah, with my fat ass, it prolly sags even more.

Correct I think, because as I heard, the weight remains setup correctly for left hand drive, but for us right hand drivers, its worse.

e.g. battery (which is really quick a substantial weight) is on our driver's side

mine seems to be even too...perhaps itz the aftermarket market springs & shocks?

my former e36 was suffering the same 'senget' symptom...even after fitting the bilstein shocks coupled with M3 springs...stil senget???

i guess if u had the balance setting, itz a bonus, otherwise itz NORMAL!

HaHAh...seems that I brought up quite an issue. Well..mine was sagging to one side even before I lowered my car. But after I lowered it..it was more noticeable, as the tyre on the right side is inside the fender while the left side tyre sits at a chun position. My friends E30 is also even..which..yea is kinda odd or maybe cos his one is a 320 ? Don't know if there's a significant difference between the models. Need to try ask bro xsjado if his one is the same or not as he's also using 318 M40. Bro Pussy from bmwcm also commented that his one is uneven too lol..so i guess this is an E30 syndrome of some sort lol
