Some BMW X6 owners report experiencing creaking sounds in the front suspension, particularly when navigating speed bumps or turning the wheel at slow speeds, which may indicate control arm issues. These owners have found that replacing the control arms can effectively address the persistent creaking noise. Additionally, bushing failure within the control arms is a common cause of this problem in BMW X6 vehicles. It is advisable for owners experiencing these noises to inspect the control arms for any signs of wear or damage. Furthermore, some owners note that the creaking may become more pronounced in colder temperatures, suggesting potential issues with the front suspension components.
