(Fixed)__Help with steering wheel warning after springs install (ADDED PICS)

Hey all!

Need some help with an steering wheel warning after the car was just lowered in the shop. The car drives fine like normal. Where is the steering wheel fluid located and could it be out of alignment? I was planning on getting it align when the springs settle within the week. Sorry about the crappy iphone pics.

2012 535i xdrive with H&R springs. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Thanks, will be taking it to the dealership and see. Looks and drives 10X better than before. Should have been the first mod on the car a year ago.

No sweat....will look very nice with stock wheels and a lot better handling. No more boat feeling.

Fyi....because my xdrive the H&R springs looks the same for the front and rear so make sure the installer look at the label on the springs.

Best of luck!
