I have an E46 with the JRZ Dinan suspension set up. 84k miles. I am being told by a shop that I need new front struts due to the shaft having too much play. I went to the shop because I have been hearing a somewhat grinding rub noise mostly when I am coming up to a red light going slower speeds, even at less than 1mph. Seems like I can't hear much when the weather is colder though. Sometimes it feels like I have to adjust my steering wheel to straighten out. Also, it doesn't happen over bumps, or turns. Just driving straight at slower speeds. But maybe I just can't hear at higher speeds. But super loud when I am barely coming to a stop.
I want to make absolute sure that this shop is correct (they don't have the best reputation come to find out) and that there isn't something else around the strut that could fix this problem. I would either have to rebuild through Dinan or just buy a complete new setup like a cup kit since I can't buy the same struts anymore. Has anyone had this problem??? Any advice???? Help!
The video is what the shop showed me, they were yanking on my wheel pretty hard to recreate what they believe is the bad strut.
