Sound coming from the front end???

Have you had the front shocks checked?

I have the same thing. does it sound like metal bending and then popping back. I was thinking it was the torsion bars working or something, but people keep mentioning body mounts and I think that may be it.

Its sounds exactly like that...I am getting it check as soon as I can. I is pissing me off to no end now. The woman is sick of me b*****n about it...Ill let you guys know...

Please do post if you get a good diagnosis on the problem. Ive had it since day 1, and its the only thing I dont like about my 3. well, that and all the flat tires with the wranglers.

Sounds like what I have....whenever I turn left I have this. Dealer has looked and looked and can never hear it, why am I not surprised. It sounds to me like as if something is stuck in the tire and rubbing like a branch. :-(

I am sooo glad to see that I am not the only one with this problem! I have not had many problems with my 3 but this is one that started about a month or so ago and it is getting worse. Took it in the the dealer to get it checked out but while driving it home the sound was still there when I would make a turn (seems like I hear & feel the popping/grinding noise most when I make right hand turns). Anyway, the service guy said that he could hear it but never could figure out the problem...just said that he tightened the torsion something or another???. Got a call the other day from the dealer to ask how everthing went with the service and I told the lady that the problem is still there and that I am getting pretty worried about it now since it seems to be getting worse...she told me she would send me a free oil change card & tell the service guys & that hopefully they can get it fixed right the next time I come in (the dealer is in Lubbock which is about 2 hours from my house).

I can feel a grinding then a popping under the driver side floorboard and can hear it loudly...seems to be worse when its cold...but it was not there until about 2 months ago. Going to try and make it back to the dealer next week to have it looked at again...keep your fingers crossed for me!
