Replacing a single m sport strut?
I've got a 2005 Z4 2.5 with the M sport suspension. My front right strut has a slight leak. I'd like to replace it. Is there a non OEM replacement? Rather than switching out all of them I'd like to replace just the single one. My local suspension shop said there are no non-oem Replacements and to get a new oem one has to be ordered from Germany as there are none in stock in North America and its $$$.

Never ever replace just one strut, unless you would like to make a more intimate relationship with a hedge.
Try fitting Bilstein B4 or B6. B4 oem, B6 uprated but more expensive.
To find a local stockist follow the link below. I would also try another suspension shop, they sound like muppets.

wot 'e said.. never replace just one, poor economy and you willl pay the price of a sh***y drive..
If you ever think I'm off my rocker.. Just put me back in it and walk away... It's the kindest thing
