Its normal. When you get in the car, it levels out. All stock suspension E36s do that.. Well, most atleast. Mine did before I got new suspension.

I dont think it's normal, the same problem if i get in the car alone or with my friends..



Do you think that there is a solution ?!!

Make sure your spring isn't broken, my right rear spring was.

it would be a spring problem not a shock problem. pretty sure e36's come this way stock to compensate for driver weight. if that's not the case you have a worn out spring.

get in the driver's seat, and have someone take a picture of both wheels to check height. see if it changes.

I don't actually think sitting in the car will fix it. Maybe the spring isn't seated correctly when you lower the car down? Or check your shocks and see if the one on the left side is worn. I had a problem like that and it was due to the spring sitting weird.

thankx alot ,
maybe the shocks as the stealthyfish say , i dont know ,but is that real that the driver weight is counted in left side.

any other idea....
