Some guys even experienced this with lowering springs until some weeks or months has passed to give time to settle. Depending on your set up, you may not notice it. Suspension geometry changes is common with these installs. This is why an alignment may be necessary to help correct angels.

Anyone with some actual experience with the setup in question? If you experienced an increase in height, how long did it take for car to settle? My previous setup didn't seem to budge for nearly a year. By that time I was use to seeing it that way.

Can anyone comment on their personal experience with the dampers performance and handling on stock springs? I'd like to know what improved on the car and if you desired stiffer front springs to get rid of body roll even after the dampers.

I read the codes with Carly and the following faults are making me think they might be something: A3AD and A3AE.

As far as I know these are communication faults, not necessarily hardware failure.

BASE: E91
BUILD-YEAR: 2007
MODEL: 335 i alle/all (86)
<--------------------------->
Instrument cluster / Kombiinstrument:
- Fault: CAN signal fault engine
- Code: A3AD
- Fault: CAN signal fault engine idle
- Code: A3AE
<--------------------------->


I've logged some files with MHD and the data there seems to be all ok.
