yes, didnt feel any vibration when I tried out the yellow stuff. might be the suspension mount is going, recalled that was what caused bill some issues. anyway, will leave it to the expert.

You can try out tomorrow nitght if you come down for chat,

Suspension Mount wear out not only vibrate while braking, but also rough road.
The Mount must be cracked due to the suspension slump before

Strangely i didnt push the car hard after the Koni fitted,
I am getting abit tired to maintain this car

Water pump, new battery, faulty alarm, error code and now the front discs....
i am exspecting the front bushes will need to replace soon aswell.....
The car is like a pet made of metals.
It will age, and come to end of life after a certain period of time.
Being it's master, treat it well and take this as a part of memory being grow up together.
If you don't want all these hassles, go for a Toyota! Most of them are indestructable

No...never wash it when the brake is hot
Did you:
1. Check the tire pressure?
2. Have a wheel alignment?
3. Check if uneven tire wear?

I know what you mean, E60 will definitely be one of the most fav cars in my life. no doubt!
But when all these came together within few months time, it can be quite annoying
