Coilovers Question - Bilstein B14 PSS on 2011 128i - Lots of play

brand new Bilstein B14 PSS coil overs making noise at lower speeds.

Missing bottom locking ring ❤

[@jf269]

The Bilstein system doesn't utilize a bottom lockring.

[@Redbully66]

Problem is easy 😅 The O-Ring is the Problem 😊

[@jf269]

it was an o-ring issue, yes.

[@mikeyd6]

I think the lower locking nut is supposed to be wound down to stop that play. The top nut is for pre load and lower part for ride height? Some coilovers when wound fully down you loose the pre load.

When you lower car shouldn’t move anymore.

[@xXmoemoneyXx]

Should have three collars I believe.

[@lanas86]

How did you fix it?

[@vtwin1979]

Why wouldn’t you contact Bilstein and ask. 🙄

[@Noah-gm3kr]

Mine does the same so I think it’s normal ?

[@x91s55]

He said he had an O-Ring problem that was causing this.

[@TheFoxho]

normal

[@nolanwaterfall8231]

I'd try to see if you can spin the threaded section clockwise into the yellow shock body... worst case you could source another collar to thread down to where the threaded section meets the body and crank it down...

Any update

[@jf269]

o-ring wasn't seated correctly.

[@JulianValentini]

[@jf269]

The Bilstein system doesn't utilize a bottom lockring.

[@supersoni126]

[@jf269]

yes, the o-ring wasn't seated correctly.

[@CREAOOfficial]

You get what you pay for. Did you buy it on E Bay

[@justinpatalsky1]

Those are the best coilovers money can buy.

[@patryktal2543]

If you dont know how to use these coilovers buy a cheap gewinde and stop recording things like this... this damage is your fault mate
