Rear subframe

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Hey everyone...

Was getting a loud noice from the rear of the car today so taken it down to my mechanics, we both noticed the rear passenger side subframe mount ripping away from the under body! 

Has anyone had this problem? And got it fixed from BMW under warranty?
I know its a known problem from other forums! 
Don't know wot the stealership will say!? As car has 105k on the clock... Its a big job as well... 
And does anyone know wot parts should be replaced?

Not actuall pic, but looks like this!

GUTTED!!!

	My friend Wullie had this problem and managed to get it fixed through Eastern BMW, I think they had the car for about a week but it was fixed though. I'm sure It was fixed on warrenty too.
