Front bushes

Hello All,

I know there has been several posts about this but I have a question about the size.

I read on a few websites that BMW changed the bushes and bush mountings to a larger size from 60mm to 66mm I believe. I want to order a full set for the car but I am not sure which size to fit. I have a 2005 2.5si.

Also the BMW part numbers would be helpful if possible :wink:

Many thanks in advance.

Do you have the sports/performance package? That will also determine the size of the bushes.

Thanks for the reply Aebous. No the car is completely standard setup. The only changes are new uprated springs on the rear as per the issues BMW had.
 
Ok well after some digging I have managed to find them I think. Is the poweflex brand any good?

Update!

Right.. my car is in the garage as I type this message looking into the steering issue. I had thought that it was the front wishbone rear bushes that were shot but it seems they are fine..

The car still wanders alot and seems to steer itself everywhere and its getting worse but my mechanic cant find a thing wrong, infact he says its like new underneath (which I was pleased with)

Is this sounding like the steering rack problem to anyone??
