View Full Version : Creaky frontend in cold weather?

We got our 5 last spring so the last two months have been its first really cold weather.

Whenever the temperature falls below freezing the front suspension creaks and clatters like an old barn door until the car warms up. I'm prepared to accept that a car creaks in cold weather, but I've had a few cars in my time, old and new, and have never heard anything like this.

Is this a normal 5 thing, or should I have it checked out? Grateful for any and all responses.

Dave

There is a whole thread on this forum dedicated to the suspension noise your referring to.
