E92 M3 wishbone movement normal?

I might just be a little paranoid but is this wishbone supposed to move around this easily? FYI the wheel is completely off the ground when I was doing this.

The twisting is normal. Up and down/left right is not. Yours looks good from the video.

It's normal. The front lower control arm is supposed to do that.

that's interesting then, i assume that's the level sensor that's attached to the arm? Looks like it has a pretty big range of movement for it for the same 'height' of where the front wheel would be.
