Remember my creaking suspension woes?

sheps · 03-05-2009, 04:27 PM

A few weeks ago I mentioned I had suspension which sounded like a creaking old bed; well the car went into the stealers today for a vehicle service check and I said I wanted the suspension looking at.

When I collected the car this afternoon they confirmed a faulty damper. Puma (whatever that is) number 17954823 covers the diagnosis parts required for rectification (damper and boots). No parts in stock, so car goes back in next week to be fixed.

Anyone with creaking suspension get into the dealers and have them check your symptoms against that puma ref.

Nice one, mine was in there today, but it hasn't been creaking recently so forgot to tell them.

Any idea how long it takes?

Any idea how we get details on BMW UK PUMA details?
Still not convinced by my dealers assessment of v30 and turbo lag (see other thread)

How about 'Hand' and 'Mum's' 'Purse'

No dis intended

Let's see if it sorts it, mine squeeks and also rattles like a moneybox now my tyres are at the right pressure.

Time to get it booked in.

I will give this info to my dealer when they give it their 3rd attempt to sort the squeaks.

Thanks.

Yes I do remember mate.

Is booked in a week tomorrow.
Will let you all know if the new dampers cure the problem.
