Hello,

I have a squeaking that is coming from the rear of my 2013 e4. I hear it when the rear end bounces a bit. I can’t replicate it while the car is stopped. Any idea where it might be coming from and what I could use to grease the area with?

Try silicone spray over all the suspension joints.

I had the same noise. I sprayed wd40 over the rear suspension joints as old house boater suggested. It works. It’s time to do it again.
