M340xi squeaking sound

The car has started making very mild squeaking sound whenever its hits small potholes. The sound is coming from the front right side of the car. I am worried that something might be going on with the suspension. Has anyone else faced this issue ?

sway bar end links are a common source of that kind of noise. It's not that big of an issue usually. You will have to go into the dealership for warranty work though. It could be a whole host of things, though. If it's easily reproduced, make sure to get a video of it and take it in.

Its not audible that much, only when I try to listen for it. My only worry is, if it can turn into some bigger problem later on.
