Suspension noise

Chrisred · 02-25-2012, 07:51 PM

While driving around town and on speed bumps I keep hearing this somewhat squeaky/creeping noise. Is it the shocks?? Not too loud but noticeable.

On stock suspension btw...

front or rear? i had a creaking coming from the front and they changed out some strut bushings on the front. problem solved. told it was a very common issue. it was under warranty, and have no idea cpo would cover it... since it may be considered a wear item.

only time i ever heard it was going very slow and over speed bumps and similar things.

I would say front. It's prob that. It even does it when I sit or get out of car. And I weigh only 170lbs lol

It's related to the parking brake. My E90 does and my E46 did it before this.
