Sway bar bushings are located along the center of the bar. When they wear out, excess play is introduced which causes noise. Turner Motorsport carries OE BMW rubber bushings as well as high quality aftermarket for those looking to upgrade.
The sway bar in your vehicle links both lower control arms. During cornering, the inner wheel tends to roll under, but the sway bar acts as a spring to prevent this. A critical part of this system is the sway bar bushings. If they become soft or worn, energy transfer is compromised due to excessive sway bar flex or bushing movement. To maintain tight and responsive handling, it’s essential to replace the bushings.
