Hi,
took the car out for a Sunday afternoon spin (not literally) this afternoon and out of the blue the back right rear suspension starts creaking - most noticeably when rolling slowly over small bumps. So I get out and bounce the thing up and down manually - creak sqeak creak.
The damn passengerside rear suspension is making a creaking that I can only describe as a cut down version of the six million dollar man bending metal. For those of you too young to remember this, it also sounds like a knackered old bedspring.
Is this bad? It irritates me, but I'm wondering if it's sick enough to need me to take it in to BMW asap, or just to wait until I get so pissed off with it that I bother to take it in.
Anyone else had this?
thanks
Claus
