creaking rear wheel - BMW Forum

noticed today that there is a creaking coming from rear wheel when turning right... it's not the bearing as they were done not long ago (about700miles) and also it creaks when i grab the wheel and try to wobble it.... i have read that the suspension does get creaky when needs lubing up, so might be that, but not sure

thanks in advance

Think you may have answered your own question there matey !!

cool, thanks mate... i'll change my question now lol... what is the easiest way to lube up the suspension? and how much work would be needed?

Really depends on what part you are lubricating...
Could even be a worn bush and that will just need replacing (best to do them all at once)...
You cannot lube a damper because the seal has probably already failed...
Check the spring rubbers too, top and bottom !!
