Okay guys, I've been doing a ton of reading on here and respect a lot of opinions out there. I've been reading every day for about 4 months. I have a 2004 545 that I recently purchased about 3 months ago. I notice that when my car is parked on an uneven surface it tends to lean a bit to whichever side is lower. Once I start the car however, the car levels out. I measured this both with the car off and when it was on and it was consistent. Does anyone now what this is?

I'm sorry I haven't posted any pictures yet. With so many great cars on here, I'm trying to take some quality photos. My 545 has the Hartge wheels, front bumper, exhaust, and decals. Your help would be appreciated if you have experienced this. Thanks!!

So I guess that is normal to tilt to one side when the car is parked on an uneven surface?
