FRONT SUSPENSION




The front suspension is the double pivot design carried over from the 540i with the following modifications:
- The carrier is reinforced in the area of the steering gear and body mounts.
- The thrust bushings are reinforced compared to the 540i.
- The stabilizer bar is larger in diameter (27 mm).
- The front wheel bearings have been specifically designed for the M5.
- Springs and shocks are specifically tuned for the M5 driving dynamics.
- The Servotronic steering incorporates two different control programs to match the two different driving programs of the MS S52 control system.
