Keep the rear suspension planted and quiet with the Beck/Arnley Suspension Control Arm Bushing (P/N 101-6698), the rear forward bushing that cushions and locates the control arm while isolating road vibration and helping hold suspension geometry. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2006 BMW 325CI, 325XI, 330CI and 330XI; the 1996-1999 and 2002-2006 BMW M3; the 2004-2010 BMW X3; and the 2003-2008 BMW Z4 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level detail.
Worn control arm bushings can show up as clunking or knocking over bumps, vibration, imprecise handling, or uneven tire wear. If a failed rear forward bushing is the cause, this replaces it. Diagnose the source before replacing, and inspect the paired side at the same time.
