Sounds just like the old rock stuck between rotor and brake shield issue. Seems weird for it to disappear when you wash the car though.....
Did you take the wheels off and inspect the brake shields? |

I've had a similar noise to the video posted above where there's a noticeable ticking noise when turning the wheel but it only happened after driving on canyon roads for some reason. However I brought it to my local bmw dealership and they stated this is a known issue. They cleaned some surfaces between the face of the wheel hub and replaced some bolts. That seemed to do the trick since I haven't heard the same ticking noises ever since.

I had a clicking noise less than a year in on my 2017 6MT. Was similar sound to the video and only when turning. Was rocks in the rotor shield in back. At the time I was not aware of the SIB to replace the shield.
When it happened again right before my warranty was going to expire, I brought it back in and asked them to replace the shield under the SIB since the same thing was happening. They fixed the problem, but said it was the strut "top hats." They replaced them both, along with a mess of washers and bolts. I don't trust them and the sound was pretty much exactly the same as it had been before, but the sound is gone and hasn't come back so I can't really argue with them. Happy to post the service order if you think it'll help. |
