thumping noise on front suspension
anybody experienced a slight thumping "bok, bok, bok" noise on your front suspension when going over minor road imperfections? i have this randomly on the left/driver's side.

Nope. If that happens only on one side and not both, I think you need to get that checked out!

I have exactly the same problem. It makes a "bok" sound on some bumps sometimes - I couldn't really tell if it was the left or the right. I also notice it sometimes when turning the steering wheel.
I also notice something stiff in the front suspension when driving over road humps - none of this behaviour is consistent however, and it doesn't bother me enough to take the car in for servicing just yet (I'll leave it till the next major service). I have seen previous posts about this and I understand there is a fix for some early models - apparently a defective part in the front suspension... |

this bok sound is difficult to replicate, and random. please post your fix on this, the bmw dealer is very far and the tech has to take a plane to reach my city, so an idea here would be of great help.

somebody posted a long time ago that there was a part that needs to be changed for early production 7s....he never posted the actual fix
this issue should be fixed!!! its annoying and embarrassing if you have friends on board. |
