Rear subframe is beginning to separate from the body of the vehicle, possibly contributor to unsafe and unstable handling. First noticed after having service 2 interval done in 2009, but upon more research online many z3 owners are having this same issue regardless of model or how it's driven. Broken spot weld underneath the vehicle. Trying to catch it early on before it gets worse. *tr
