    Thanks for the replies...

    I've just noticed that I have a broken rear spring so the car will definitely go in for that and I will be sure to try and find somewhere that will do the RTABs under warranty too.

    Incidentally, am I right in thinking that the dealer should replace both springs?

    I would always replace both but would be interested to hear what BMW Warranty usually has to say on the subject...

      Murketts :thumbs: and yes they should change both springs at the same time, not just the broken one.

          Alas in my case, they wouldn't change both springs. Only the broken one and the previous owner paid 60 quid or something.

          They did fit them both for free though!

          Best

            mine were changed by the dealers a few years ago but one at a time

            i also swapped one or two out

            i dont really see why both need to be chnaged tbh, its only a bloody spring - if my coilover snapped i wouldnt buy two!

              What problems would I see to show the rtab are gone/going? At the moment under hard acceleration the rear feels like it's not as planted as I guess a car like this should be. Is that rtab? This is my first csl and I've only just got it reg'd for the UK:thumbs: this weekend so have been out in it. What a lot of of fun. The rear doesn't seem to sit down evenly, possibly a bit squirmy if that makes sense, cars on 30k miles so if it is I guess I should try the warranty.

                my first outing in my CSL i noticed after exiting a roundabout the car felt like it was letting go at the back, especially one side

                needed new RTAb all round

                if i were you id just get it done but with TMS limiter kit, as it will go sometime anyway (every 15-20k miles)
