Stretching spring noise when braking
Hi everyone,
My first BMW! 2018 540i, 10k miles. When I brake and do not put much pressure to stop the car slowly, there is a string stretching sound coming from the front right before the car stops completely. I can't attach an m4a audio file recorded with my phone, so here's the link to that m4a audio file on my OneDrive: https://1drv.ms/u/s!Amtebgmy4A9omes2Q8RiqDcC2o_Puw What's that might be?

Thank you for reply, but before taking my car to the dealer I wanted to hear opinions from experienced drivers on what that noise might be. Otherwise what's the purpose of the discussion board right?

Its uper controll arm. Rubers.. getting mine done. Since I had modified car its no longer under warranty. Each upper controll arm cost 400usd + fitting. Silly price and wheel alignment is needed.
You looze bolts on that controll arm and all noise go away but you cant drive like that. . |
