Need help on E90 rear suspension squeaking sound

[xtrava]

Hi All,
My ride is 2006 E90 with 99k mileage. Whenever i pass by uneven roads , i will hear "e ...e..." squeaking sound from my rear suspension. The sound will go away after a rain and it comes back when the car is dry.

Appreciate if someone can give some advise what needs replacement.


thanks

Squeaking sound may be from the springs. Have a check on the springs bushing, may be due to wear & tear.

To know if yur absorber are working fine, checks for oil leak stains.

i have a similiar problem but in different conditions.
my front suspensions will creak when going over humps after heavy rain and when weather is cold and wet. after weather turns hot and dry sound will go away.

not yet. did a search online and overseas owners say it might be some problems with the sway bar bushings. my car is still under warranty so will go back PML to check later this year when it rains more often.

It could be the ARBs - more grease could help.
