Your BMW's steering feel is likely one of the many reasons you chose to drive a BMW. Despite them switching to electronic power steering after E9x, we love the connection to the road every BMW provides. We have everything you need to service your BMW's steering system, from quicker ratio steering racks for the trackday warrior to upgraded factory steering wheels for your daily driver.
The tie rods in your vehicle translate the movement of the steering wheel through the rack and to your wheels. Oftentimes when a vehicle is beginning to experience some higher mileage, the tie rod ends begin to fail. This causes slop in the steering wheel and knocks and creaks in the steering system. Catastrophic tie rod end failure can cause serious damage and danger as the tie rod end keeps the wheel path straight.

The idler arm in your vehicle is a steering piece that can wear out over time. When worn out, it causes play in your steering wheel and makes driving uncomfortable. To repair this problem, replace the idler arm.

If you hear a loud clunk when you turn your steering wheel, or have loose steering or inconsistent tracking, the problem could be a worn idler arm bushing. Bushing failure will allow excessive up and down play of the drag link/center tie rod on passenger side, resulting in inconsistent toe setting.
