Front sway bar bushing
In my attempt to find out what is causing my front suspension noise on a 2011 e92, I was thinking of replacing my front sway bar bushings. After contacting getbmwparts and realoem it appears you can not buy the bushings by themselves. BMW forces you to buy the entire sway bar.
Has anyone here replaced their front sway bar bushings with oem? If so, do you have a part number? ECS shows a oem bushing but I am no longer sure if that is the correct part. |

As you've already found, that part doesn't appear to be available separately from the bar itself. How many miles on your car? More than likely your bushings are fine, but if you wanted to "upgrade" you could always go with some urethane bushings or even the BMW MS bushings:

Only at 31k miles. Here is a link to my other post describing the problem.

What do you mean by "already checked the end links?" Did you unbolt them completely? Replace them? etc.? That's the only way to *really* check them. Just looking at them or making sure the nuts aren't loose isn't going to do anything for you.
