    Works so well when all the parts are nice and new, but the reality is everything has rusted up after 10 years of weathering and near impossible to undo. Great video though.

    Like how they dont show that you need to compress these springs to a ridiculous level. Its absolutely terrifying doing these e9x springs .they are about 18" out the box and need to be compressed to about 6"

    No danger does anything fall out that easy. So yeah the instructions are bang on! but if you're doing this be prepared for it not going this way.

    Great video, thanks. I have a couple of questions however. Firstly, are these springs the same for all models between 2006 and 2011 (for a normal E90 320d)? And secondly, is there a specific coil direction for the LHS and RHS of the car? I'm a bit confused at the variety of springs available with some parts retailers.
    Cheers!

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  6 років тому +1

      Thank you for the feedback! We are glad that our tutorial was helpful for you. Basically, there is no difference in the springs, they are the same but for exceptions when there are sports suspension on some models of cars. Best Regards, Autodoc

    If I change one from spring, do I need to do the other from one as well at the same time?

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  5 років тому +2

      Thank you for your feedback! You are right, the replacement must be done in pairs. Please feel free to contact our Customer Support Team if you have any other questions. Best Regards, Autodoc Team!

  • @RidwanMaassarani

    How about torque specs on the bolts and how much the suspension was loaded when tightening the control arms

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  7 років тому +1

      Thank you for your feedback! You are right, in practice the torque wrench should be used. This video is considered to be an informative one, and it shows the sequence of repairs,so some stages of the repairs might have been excluded.Best regards, Autodoc.

    After everything is done, does the car need to do the wheel alignment service?

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  7 років тому +1

      Thank you for the feedback! It's absolutely right ,after carrying out of such works it is recommended to do the wheel alignment service.Best regards, Autodoc.

    Great vid but please replace the music with talking or something else it's quite annoying. Best videography though, I love the dual angle shots

      I find that not having talking makes it easier. I just watched and watched over again whilst doing the job and had no issues. People talking can be really off-putting for me. Brilliant, very helpful video

    Hi,
    Your change of camera position at 9.41 couldn't have been at a worse time. Which way up does the washer go, with the black line up or down?

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  6 років тому

      Thank you for the feedback! The washer you can put in any way. Best regards, Autodoc.

    • @eddieronayne3463
      @eddieronayne3463 5 років тому +1

      It's possible to fit either way. However there is only one CORRECT way to fit it...
      The concave towards the top mount.
      Please get a properly trained technician to do these videos.
      Strut removal is totally incorrect too...

    • @cavaleir1
      @cavaleir1 5 років тому

      @Eddie Ronayne just want to know how is the strut removal incorrect in this video please share with us the correct way thanks

    • @eddieronayne3463
      @eddieronayne3463 5 років тому

      I was referring to the concave washer.
      However, removing the strut is much easier and faster by dropping down and out under the wing (fender)

    • @cavaleir1
      @cavaleir1 5 років тому

      oK, I see a lot of videos of ppl dropping the strut down from the top and they have more problems trying to clear the fender to the point where some have used compressors on the spring to get enough clearance. Dropping the linkage from the bottom on many videos that i have seen seems to be the best way I guess it is all a matter of preference.

  • @derekstaples8844

    Yeah nice easy job when all the components nuts bolts are rust free and it's a brand new shock and not one that's been on the car 10 years 🙄

    I have seen a few where some has taken the strut out from the top first and have had problems clearing the fender and I have seen a couple of videos where they take the strut out at the bottom as you did which seems easier do you kno why they would do the top first ? thanks in advance for any help on this.

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  5 років тому +1

      Thank you for the feedback! Unfortunately, it is hard to answer your question, there can be many reasons for it. Our videos are informative as to replacement sequence, and it's always up to you how to replace a car part. Best regards, Autodoc.

    • @LeedsHypnotherapist

      If you are working with a jack and small axle stands, you can put the Jack under to support the brakes. If you're using a lift and tall stands you don't need to worry about that

    Hi, went to take out the T40 torx bit and the 22mm bolt and the torx stripped the threads, nightmare. Can't anyone recommend how to get the nut off as it just spins around

    • @autodocuk
      @autodocuk  4 роки тому

      Thank you for your comment.
      We recommend you to you squeeze the hinge from below with a jack to fix your finger and then it will be possible to unscrew the nut.
      Best Regards,
      Autodoc team.

    • @devilman1976
      @devilman1976 2 роки тому +1

      I drilled the nut and used a nut splitter and replaced the track rod end at the same time. Hope you got it sorted in the end

    Be great with some guidance or advice. Half the tools aren't mentioned and they seem to be the more speciality ones. Thanks for the video but it could have been so much better with talking.

    most japanese and volvos are much easier to take the spring out without detaching so much, 2 bolts on the knuckle and it slides right out this poor desing imo
