[QUOTE="azan23uk, post: 16959, member: 8654"] sifu,2 week ago, discovered this 'loose' sound characterised as below;1. Coming from top of driver-side absorber;2. Sound is a very discreet, very quick 'kluk,kluk,kluk' and it only comes when i make a sharp left trun and the driver-side tyre going on a set of small ripples on the road;4. Sound also comes when i brake and the tyres going on set of small ripples on the road;All arms, rubber joints, steering rack are tip top (just done less than 3 mths ago), . I changed the top absorber mount when i discovered that it already gave way (rontak) hoping the sound to go away. But no, the sound still there. My mechanic suspects the absorber itself is the problem. But the Sachs are only 14 mth old!! He maybe right cos my front driver-side hankook makan slightly on the outer side even after a couple of times alignment and camber adj. Any opinion?Mine is 528i Yr 2000 CBU [/QUOTE]
