Our 525 has had a alienment problem from day one. Just got it back today for the second time to try and get it to drive correct but still pulling to right. It feels like it is comming from the rear of the car. Has anyone had a problem like this? Thanks

The rear E60 aluminium suspension is very accurate. A very little difference may cause problems : alignement, caster, camber, toe, tire pressure, tire wear, ...
The problem is to put the finger on it. While your car is under warranty, you must ask your dealer to check & to check to find & fix the problem.

to have to go straight do you need to pull the steering to the left? or does it go straight if the steering is held a bit to the left???

Just heard back from the service manager and after having the car for 3 days they have found that the right side of the car is riding to low, it has a bad front spring causing the front to sag and this is causing the car to pull to the right. He order both front springs and we hope to have the car back next week.

All four springs/shocks should be in balance!
