LEMFÖRDER Control Arm reviews

What has happened to Lemforder? Ordered a pair of these arms. One did not have the bushings pressed in completely which I guess I could have done with a hydraulic press in my garage. However, the other one was a disgrace. It almost looked like a second hand item that had been refurbished by 8 year old - and not a particularly talented 8 year old at that! The bushings on this one were better but still not fully pressed in. The arm had several signs of impact damage. The area at the ball joint was machined down too much to the extent the strength of the arm looked compromised. Quite how this got passed quality control is beyond me. The latest in a series of disappointing Lemforder items purchased from here. One would almost think they are selling “seconds”. The respect I had for Lemforder has been lost - no more for me.
I’m not convinced this review will be published!

The truly one and ONLY replacement for your BMW E39 of any type. this is wholly correct for the E39 M5 and exactly what you get if you order it from BMW.

definitely buy this OEM part to refresh your Suspension

The BMW parts matrix refers to this as a wishbone and exactly what you get from BMW for £150 through their value line or £80 here. . . . . . . . you make your choice !

I had to replace it after 1 month, the product was rubbish, when I was breaking my wheels was shaking, and the car making strange noise when I was going into a pot hole, and I didn't see any marks of lemforder on the arm

Just order them and got fitted to my BMW X3 F25 and they look class and felt awesome quality. Slight issue during shipping with Autodoc but they resolved it with good communication.

It is my belief that it is OE quality, and perhaps the exact same part as the original, going by comparing the part photos to the original arm that I have removed.

Now fitted the near side front and off side to my Ford S-Max Titanium X Sport 2.0L. Great fit and an easy job to do. Lemförder are the best on the market...

I’ve chosen the Lemforder part because it’s the nearest to MB original I can get without the MB price tag. Do the job well and only once. Fingers crossed 🙂

Top quality replacement parts. Will only use lemforder suspension euipment due to poor quality managacturers, that fail 1-2 years later.

Please check that the part number on the suspension arm is the same as the label. I am in the process of returning one that is incorrect

It was the part number on Lemforder's web site for my Z$M 2006 so should be the right part and your web site had my car as what it is.
