ACS springs are great but I got mine fitted by Rossiters on my old M5, it's worth the trip for peace of mind.
The RS kit is also very impressive.

That link you posted won't work for me though, is it relevant? If so please could you try again. It just says no content when I click it. Thanks

my noise isn't activated by steering although sounds similar. it will do it with no steering input going up and down a dropped curb/over a manhole cover etc.. basically any tiny bump in a straight line or turning will make it creak. ill set up my go pro and try and capture it although ill probably fail miserably.

Update - problem solved.
After much prodding, poking and head scratching it turned out to be the noise was coming from the "cup like seat" that the bottom of the front shocks sit in. The bolt wasn't tight enough and the shock was shifting in the seat where it connects to the hub. It's alloy and the mechanic has bent one in the past by over tightening so eased off on the torque. This time he undid it, we moved the steering wheel lock to lock a few times then did it up tight. And the noise has gone

Here's a video i made showing the noise, the second half was taken after it was fixed. Note that the noise wasn't just steering related it did it when driving straight on bumpy roads but on the ramp the only way to replicate it was steering lock to lock.

I don't know the torque. The garage I went to were more of an "eyeball it" kind of place lol. If anyone knows the correct torque or how to find out I'd be very interested to know.

This post is great thanks. I have exactly the same problem after MPHAS was fitted.
I got a 24hr subscription to bmwtis to find out the info. When I loosened mine the noise disappeared but when retightened and torqued to 80nm it came back. We went to 95nm but no joy. Anyway, correct torque is 56nm and Bmw recommends a new bolt every time. I will get my bolts tomorrow and try it. Hopefully it sorts it. Hope the info was of use! I have some of the other torque info too if anyone wants it. |

I've the same problem with MPHAS!
I did see this post at bmw, they tightened the bolt but the noise continues. The noise is exactly the same as that of the video. Anyone help me. I'm desperate. |

You may have to check the whole installation to find it I'm afraid.

I’ll have to try it too. I retorqued the pinch bolt and it went away for a few days. Now it’s back so must be something else.
I’m also getting some resonance, like a wheel bearing has failed, with the MPHAS. I wonder could it be a poor install or some other issue. PITA! |
