My '11 328xi is at 89940 atm and yes suspension is overdue so getting ready to address this. I live in the in the NW and average 1400 miles a week with around 600lbs of tools and supplies (mobile furniture specialist, yes I can fix your crappy Ashley sofa and no you shouldn't have CL free'd your grandma's couch) over a lot of different surfaces. I often have dirt/gravel roads, potholes that look suspiciously like an M252 made them, snow, rain and ice of all kinds. After reading several novels worth of posts on this I think the b12 from blistien is my best option, so I pulled out my bently manual, searched you tube and perused the DIY forums and still not sure how much of a pain in the ass this would be to do myself. My time is valuable and after a certain point it is worth more to me to pay someone to do the work. For those that have done the job themselves how long (and how much swearing, occasionally flying tools) did it take you?

***In case anyone else reading this decides to go with the B12 kit part #46-180605 (one for a 06-11 328xi) it is now special order and it takes 12 wks to get it made THEN it will ship. Trust me on this I just spent two days informing any number of parts places that their websites needed an update and when they called their rep and asked were told 12 wks. So got a set of FSDs and I'll stick with the stock springs for the moment and fume a bit then re-think this!***
