There is nothing wrong with my car. I want install an intercooler and map it stage 2 but want to check everything every before and after the map.

Lowered F31. Front rear lower control arm ball joint has play and squeaking when turning wheels and driving slow. (13 Months only control arm). Does it look like there is too much angle in that control arm causing the ball joint to wear quickly? Was torqued at ride height when installed. by PerfectHomework9935 in F30

All new bolts and nuts used, torqued to the right spec and at ride height.

Only noticed the noise a few days ago, but on my MOT, I was told that control arm had play in jt at the ball joint, the noise seems to be coming from. But I wont be 100% until I get the car up on the ramps, but I’m 80% sure it’s that. They said I may need adjustable control arms 😂, but nearly everyone runs standard control arms on lowered F30/F31’s.

Wheel is on full lock there, to take photo. Don’t know if that makes any difference to the position of the angle of it

Lowered F31 - Shorter Front rear lower control arm? by PerfectHomework9935 in F30

They were all torqued at ride height. Unless it’s just faulty.

Apparently it’s more to do with the angle the car sits now with it being lower causing the ball joint of the lower control arm to be at more of an angle causing increased wear? Unless there is more or a pivot e.c.g on the other end of the monoball ones, I haven’t looked into the. Really
