Hello again all,

I talked to my BMW service manager in length about this problem. He said suspension issues have been present in other models too. (although I don't recall which ones)

It sure seems like a run of bad adaptive shocks and/or mounts.

I am having the right rear mount and shock replaced in two weeks. Can't get it in sooner as they are slammed. I will let you all know if it fixes the issue. Some are reporting this has worked. Others, no cigar, noise still persists. Garbage back in, garbage back out perhaps.

You can be sure that if this does not fix the issue, I will have the dealership continue looking as long as they don't arrest me.

To be continued......,

After about a year now and not seeing much progress, I decided to formally have my suspension inspected by the dealer so we all can document. Turns out my right rear strut is actually leaking so they have ordered a new strut and top mount from Germany. Ill report back once its repaired.

Havent heard anyone else report leakage. My car has 7500 miles

That’s really interesting. Isolated/separate incident or does the thump actually lead to this problem? The “coincidences” are really piled up here.

I still haven’t formally had the dealer look at it. I’ve mentioned the problem to corporate. At my first official service I’ll do the same.
