Help. Creaking noise.
Help. Creaking noise.
Hi my name is Alex and I recently purchased an M45 Sport with about 110k miles. Recently my car has been making some really annoying creaks and squeaks when driving on un-even pavement, my driveway, bumps, potholes, etc. When it rains the noise completely goes away. I haven't taken it to the dealer or a mechanic because it could be anything. I am also very reluctant to take it to the dealer because I am only 21 and do not want to get taken advantage of. Anyone else have this problem with their M35 or M45? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

I would say it's your suspension bushings. With my car, it started with the sway bar bushings. At 128,000 miles, I am about to replace the inner tie rod ends and will have completely refreshed all of the bushings.
