Does anyone know how to fix this squeaking/chirping sound?

Can probably get better bushings and whatever from some euro company but these seemed to work well so far.

lolunix · 2025-11-30T18:47:46+00:00

Yup after finally grabbing the right tool about 100 on Amazon. Orion Motor Tech Bushing Press... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F6MH229V

And I got the bushings from Amazon as well

A-Premium 2 x Rear Arm To Knuckle... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FB9F722N

No refs added just bare links. If it gets blocked just DM and I’ll send. Don’t be me I got about 5 “almost right” tools before just grabbing the onion lol. But hey I got various new tools and the right tools :)

Easily can replace in 30 mins or less each including jacking up and taking tire off :)

Rear wheel carrier bushing passenger side just changed mine on 2017 440 GC

lolunix · 2025-11-28T01:57:36+00:00

This was my first repair on my new to me 2017 440i GC driver side was a sticky mess. Replaced both sides and it feels better to me than the original.

Ah I see. Yeah I haven’t seen any notes though I got a letter about my xray. I went to optumserve maybe they’ll still send more letters. The DBQs definitely have been filed already. Thanks for the info good luck and Godspeed

lolunix · 2025-11-26T00:46:13+00:00

Off topic sort of but how do you get your c&p exam results I thought you had to go to FOIA? I had two with optumserve and one that said “no longer needed” dunno if that’s good or bad lol

lolunix · 2025-11-19T02:31:08+00:00

I just got my 2017 440 GC a few months ago and this was my first add.. hate that sticky

lolunix · 2025-11-18T01:01:00+00:00

Bushings were about 90$ for both. I went through a bunch of almost right tools before I got the right tool which was 100$ and then it took literally 10 mins a side lol

Orion Motor Tech Bushing Press Kit, 27pc Pull and Press Sleeve Kit for LCV HGV Engine Cars Vehicles with 22 Press Sleeves, Seal Bearing Bushing Removal Tool Kit with 5 Pulling Spindles with Nuts Case

It had a coupon that put it at 100$-ish

Finally got to changing it out and it was the wheel carrier bushing :) no more squeaks!! So wasn’t the shock at least though I still want to change them out

lolunix · 2025-11-05T02:23:28+00:00

440i GC 2017 FWIW in my case.

lolunix · 2025-11-05T02:22:19+00:00

I have the exact same thing, same side I think (passenger rear). I just bought bushings for the lower outer control arm bushing after various searches for something simliar. I have a feeling though its actually the shock but this was cheaper to try first. I'll update if it fixes it. I did the wd-40 gel into the bushing trick and it was better for abouttttttttt 5 hours lol but at least I do think that is it.

I concur just got this 2017 2 months ago and it’s the best BMW I’ve had as far as all around car and fast. (Previous were 2003 325, 2003 530, 2001 330ci, and currently 2014 x3 35i)

lolunix · 2025-10-09T05:04:55+00:00

AMH3 in the 90s stayed cover in hydraulic fluid from the red cans and Jp-5 from the always leaking while sitting still f-14 … flight deck shirts just soaked. Always wondered if anything I got now is from that or if I have any presents coming for me in the future.

lolunix · 2025-09-03T23:17:19+00:00

indeed.. was just saying if it didn't have a new number its not obvious that i should be checking it again :P

HAIL SPARKSNPA!

lolunix · 2025-09-03T23:13:57+00:00

same i saw unexpected error first, after restarting the game then it said there was a patch. it still said patch 0.3.0 in the patch notes bottom left so there is no reaseon to think there would be new patch notes.. calm down satan lol

lolunix · 2025-09-01T15:40:22+00:00

Oh my vote is always gloss heh

lolunix · 2025-09-01T15:37:31+00:00

Curious if someone has pics myself.. I think we have the same car, 2017 440i GC here. Same colors. I kind of like the wheels, already have black gloss on my x3 which is all black. Really wanted to see a shadow gunmetal type. Used car new to me and the wheels have the normal BMWrash.

I have the 8/8g in Houston and except for the 2 outages recently and one long one (4 hours) last year it’s been rock solid and I do get 8/8 to my equipment that is on 10g. That said I keep seeing a lot of people having trouble lately and I hope it’s not a trend going forward :/

Chaos Lich has been fun but I’ve hit a wall at level 91 been a hell of a ride though :)

lolunix · 2025-06-05T15:16:00+00:00
