Have you tried already to spray some wd40 to the bushing just to see if the noise will go away? My 2.5yo M3 had this slight noise coming from the front driver side wheel. Not a clunk metal noise but can be heard when going through uneven road and speedbumps on certain angles.

After applying the same DIY fix from the video, the noise was gone for a few months. I plan to reapply some wd40 again at the next tire rotation which I do by myself.

Thanks for this tip sir. Will have to visit a friendly mechanic who can lift the car for me and apply wd 40.

If you are referring to this one, then there's no need for a lift.

I suggest using this kind of silicone spray.

Thanks sir for the advise. Am unsure where exactly the noise is coming from since i have to leave the car with them (probably a mistake) and just received this diagnosis and estimate when i had to pick up the car.

I can probably try to spray WD40 in all moving parts of the front suspension mechanism and see if it disappears.

Thanks again!

Saw this rim from a youtube review of a Subaru Levorg and I instantly like it!

Anyone here knows a local distributor of WedsSport?

If it's "squeaking" you hear, could also be wiper cowl. Often heard near A-pillar, driver or passenger side.

If it's "tok" , then you'll probably need coil spring insulators first. If still under warranty, bring it to Mazda Makati. See if you can talk to Rod, the service manager to explain your problem. Maybe have a clear video recording on-hand to help your case.

Otherwise, check your bushings. Lower arm front bushing takes a beating, could be worn out. Lower arm rear bushing, the big one doesn't wear out as fast and as often.

If you're trying the lubrication method, do process of elimination. That way you can easily pinpoint the source. Don't go spraying all the bushings at once, you won't figure out which one is faulty.

Appreciate if anyone can share what could have caused the malfunction, and advise solution on this. I have 1 year warranty to go. Unit is 2017 1.5HB.

I went to have this checked again yesterday at Mazda QA, the technician identified the AC Blower Fan Controller as the culprit. They will file report for warranty claim. I hope this will fix the problem.
