    Default E34 front end noises!

    Hi, i have a quick question, I have a 95 520i and when cold the front suspension seems to make quite a bit of noise. This seems to be most apparent when either turning the steering without moving, or gowing over bumps. Once things have warmed up the noises disapeer. does anyone have any ideas of what i can do/replace to cure this?

    Kind Regards

    Nick

    Hi Nick,

    Not sure what kind of noises specifically (Growl, gurgle, etc). But typically it is your shocks on the way out. They will kinda growl at you when they are being compressed. How many miles do you have on the shocks? Best bet is to crawl under the car and look for wear or possible rubbing from components which is not normal.

    Good Luck,
    Rory
