Air sound coming from shocks, normal?

OrangeCrush · 07-06-2016, 04:38 PM

Hey all! When going over small abrupt bumps at low speeds, I can hear a "pfst" air sound coming from the shocks/suspension. Almost like there is an air leak. Is this normal? I'm on the stock suspension. Thanks!

Very normal, and this car has less sound isolation then regular 2-3 series.

OK cool. Thanks. I never heard this in the 1M but I was distracted by all the other suspension noises.
