Front suspension knock
Experiencing front suspension knock on rebound when fully extended. Mostly noticeable when going slow over speed humps or bumps on the road. The F85 has 46k klm's, I've brought it up with the bmw service tech with them failing to concur.
I find the knock is much less when using sport or sport + I'm planning to replace the OEM front struts or for a bit more expense go for KW. Has anyone else experienced this? It's kind killing my enjoyment of the car |

I've noticed this too and was thinking of replacing the swaybar links first:

I looked up 37116859653 and FCP Euro came back with the kit "37116771929" Under OE numbers, it shows:
37116859653, 37116857627, 37116771929 37116859654, 37116857628, 37116771930 I was also surprised to see that swaybar links were side dependent. |

I think it's fairly common, I have the same issue over speed bumps. Annoying, but I don't drive over speed bumps all day.
Not sure if the KW equipped community deals with the same clunking…
