Creaking/squeezing front suspension BMW M5 F10
Hello,
I have a pretty iritaring sound coming from mine front end on my M5 F10. Sound appear only when driving with low speed. For example i hear the noise on uneven roads when going slow, and i also hear it when i start roling from the trafficlight for example. Please see the vido i have uploaded. What could the problem be? I have read all about wheelbearing, dry bushes, sway bar and so on. What do you think guys? Hope somebody can help me out with this, it is so irritaring.. |

Sounds like a balljoint to me or possibly the strut. You weren't turning the wheel at all, correct?

I don't mean to be rude but if you don't know what a strut is you should just find a good independent shop to look at it for you and get you straightened out.

Thread revival. So my 2015 just start making this creaking noise. I really only notice going forward at this time and under 5mph. Bar is great otherwise. Was a fix ever determined. Had her up in the air today checking bushings. The rear difff mount bushing was the only one I thought had to much play in it even though I can't see any cracking, but it could just be ripped.
Thoughts? |

Finally cured a creak/groan my car had in the rear at low speeds. This was my second time under the car checking bushings. Then, I decided to check all the bolts on the rear axle bracing.
Bingo! The two forward passenger side bolts on brace were missing. But, I was wrong, they were still there. They had twisted and snapped the heads off. 600+ whp and wtq will break things I guess. I got the broken stumps out and replaced all four of the forward bolts with grade 9 instead of the factory grade 8 bolts. Noise is gone for $8 dollars and less than an hour of my time. |

Just visit Home Depot or your favorite fastener store. I used Allen head M8-1.25 x 35 mm Class 9 with washers. I tightened them but didn’t torque them.

I'm talking about pictures of the two forward passenger side bolts on brace that were missing on the car not the tool you used

I know this post is from a long time ago but I had the same exact issue and creaking sound in my front right suspension. So annoying.
31122284978 is the part that was replaced. All is fine and good now. |

Thanks for noting that, the same thing is happening to mine and someone told me it was the bushings. But this part you sent makes more sense.
