I noticed the other day getting out of my 2007 335i sport sedan that when a weight shift occurs on the drivers side of the car that a squeak comes from the suspension over the rear drivers side wheel. If i push on the tire with my foot pretty hard it will happen as well. Any ideas before i let a mechanic tell me what he thinks?
Thanks in advance.

Maybe bushings, try to spray it with wd40 silicone or something similar

the bushings were replaced with polyurethane bushings about 30k miles ago, how often do those need replaced?

[udm328i]

Not sure how often, which ones did you replace?
I had a squeak that I thought was coming from rear,
Mechanic tracked it down to front sway bar bushing. A bolt from the bracket that's holds bushing broke. Had to drop the belly pan to see it. But try to check all suspension components.

#18, 14 & 3 are your typical culprits

Always replace no 3, if it's never been replaced when doing work like this. No. 3 will go eventually.

You can also inspect the parking brake shoes backing plate
