Confirming that this fix works. My car is lowered on M Performance HAS and the clicking sound started immediately after install. Disassembly of the bolt and re-torquing to spec did not help. I followed this procedure and it's all quiet now after about 10-15 miles of driving.

Video is still helpful, but my clicking reappeared after a couple of days. I think you're onto something as the anti-sieze does help. After some more forum research, a few F80 Post members did a full disassembly of the strut and strut knuckle. A few people have reported the clicking not coming back. I tried the full disassembly and drove about 300 miles since. It's pretty silent now.

As a side note, I also had a bolt that was a bit loose on the steering rack mount and saw another video blaming those bolts for the creaking sound. Between the three of these bolts, my steering is smooth as butter and silent!! Thanks so much for posting this fix!!

@Tommy L Garage you should not be putting anti seize on bolts that are torque to spec EVER. Anti seize introduces a lot of lubrication to the threads which then reduces the natural friction the nut and bolts have which the torque spec is calibrated to. By adding this lubrication you are increasing the axial load on the bolt SIGNIFICANTLY which can take the bolt much closer to its failure point. Add to that aggressive/track driving and you can have premature failure. Please inform your viewers that they must not get anti seize on the threads, keep it to the mating faces ONLY.

Mine does this and I got told off bmw that every bolt they undo on the suspension they replace with brand new ones. Mines been lowered on eibach springs before I bought it so bolts probably not been changed. They had a special notice on this noise and I had to buy £160 of suspension bolts for both sides. Also got all the torque settings for every bolt. This will be a winter job when I take it off the road. Don’t shoot the messenger on this it’s what I got told by bmw and they are aware of it and apparently every bolt gets replaced. Worth the £160 to get rid of the embarrassing noise.

beautiful. I have a mini F60 2019 countryman. All the suspension components look identical in this video, even the adjustable damper wire cap. I have a creaking when steering but it's mostly audible inside instead of outside. I can hear it coming from everywhere, though. Lol. The creaking seems to be traveling all over the place. I tried soaking the top of the spring, rubber perch, etc. I'll have to check the bracket shown in this video and see if that's the trick. Thank you.

Hi Tommy, great video and thank you. My car has been back and forth to BMW 5 times and every time they have only silence the noise for a couple of days and it comes back. I’ve carried this out yesterday and it’s fixed the noise. But just wondering when you unscrew the pinch bolt, can this move and throw off the alignment from the suspension possibly? As since BMW have been carry out there fix multiple tile my steering has been shaking between 40-80mph. It’s not wheel balancing as I’ve had this all checked and all wheels are balanced. Thanks again.

Did you ever get any clicking while Rolling? I have the same apex wheels and I’m told by some it could be the wheels themselves. Basically it sounds like a bad wheel bearing, very pattern oriented click, 2 clicks then 1. While rolling, frequency changes with speed and what not. Doesn’t happen when you have the car on a lift and spin tire though, even with pressure on the whole system trying to mimick suspension compression. Drivers side, when i turn left and take the weight off that side, sound stops until it balances back out. You’d think wheel bearing but I’ve already had that replaced. Was just curious if you had any of that issue

@@TommyLGarage Found the problem - it's related to the metal interaction between the wheel bearing flange and the lightweight rotor hat. BMW has a SIB (SIB 34 05 17) on this and the fix is a friction ring (very thin spacer). Although, I didn't go this route. Instead, I installed 5mm Apex spacers as I wanted the wheels a little more flush, and once I did this the clicking/ticking stopped. If ever returns, I'll buy the friction rings from BMW.

Great video Tommy, any updates, does it still work, mine F30 335i developed that kind of noise when turning at a standstill right after installing new strut top mounts, Dinan springs and Koni active shock, Will be trying that soon. Thank you for helpful ideas.

So it works well. One thing I’d like to add I it’s better to tighten it under load. So jack it up by the rotor and then tighten.

Tommy, good video. I wonder, however, how you came up with 55ft-lbs. The official torque value is 41ft-lbs. Could you explain why you went with 55ft-lbs?

Sooo, that bolt shouldn't move at all, the entire strut is supposed to turn with the wheel. It's just not tight enough, shouldn't have anything to do with anti seize.

@@TommyLGarage Can't hurt as an added measure, but I would take issue with it moving if it's tight enough and your strut bearing is ok. Next time someone can just crank it a little more to confirm 😉 Cheers for a fix either way

@@TommyLGarage It's really the whole dash and center console - it all makes noise over bumps, as well as the door seals when going up or down a driveway, all of it super annoying!
