Is it possible to overtighten strut mount nut?
I'm trying to hunt down a vibration I'm getting at highway speeds in my '11 128i.
I recently installed the M3 control arm kit, bilstein B8's, H&R lowering springs, new tie rods, new end links, and the strut mounts are only about a year old. While installing the new front stunts, I unfortunately didn't have the correct size strut socket, you know the one with the cutout in the side to allow an allen key to keep the strut from spinning. TL;DR, I had to use an impact gun on the strut to strut top mount nut. I tried to be "gentle" with it. I'm wondering if my vibration could be caused by binding of the strut mount? |

I was thinking the same as you about the strut mounts torquing not being an issue. |
