I have h&r springs. Haven't tried taking to dealer yet. Just assume they won't cover since aftermarket parts installed.

Gotcha yeah the dealer won't replace it. I just read your other post. I would just swap it all out for a full coilovers setup. Trying to install your oem springs and taking it in is a gamble and you might be wasting money on just the labor charge of swapping the oem springs back in.

You should probably get yours replaced soon...Not safe to keep driving on it. I really can't wait since mine has leaked a lot of fluids and is now making a lot of rattling and clanking noises at certain speeds. I was thinking about maybe buying a new oem strut from tischer Bmw for around $250 shipped and replace it myself. Would love to get coilovers but it's 1.5-2.5k a set for either Cks or Kw and I can't spend that much now.

sorry to highjack your thread again, but if anyone wants to sell him the rear driver side , I would be interested in the rear passenger side.

I may be looking to get coilover. But prefer not to sell just one. If I can sell at least 2 of 4, then I will definitely consider.
Will 535i struct work on 535xi, 550i, or 550xi?
