What Are Signs That The BMW 733I Sway Bar Bushing Needs Replacement?
You’ll usually hear it first. A dull rattle or deep thump comes through under the car as you drive over cracks or uneven pavement. The steering loses its crispness, and you might notice your 733I seems to drift or lean more in corners. Turn the wheels fully and listen for new noises—anything odd can be a clue. Sometimes even a shudder finds its way through the steering wheel. Take a look underneath; worn or cracked rubber around the sway bar stands out. Worn bushings rarely fail quietly, so it’s a good idea to check if your car feels off or sounds rougher than it did a few months back.
How Difficult Is It To Replace The BMW 733I Sway Bar Bushing?
Replacing sway bar bushings isn’t a job that scares off folks used to handling a ratchet. Still, the car needs to come up safely, so use sturdy stands. Getting to the bushings can test your reach, especially if they haven’t been touched in decades. Sometimes rust fights back. But with a decent socket set, a brush, and a bit of WD-40, it turns into a project you can finish in a couple of hours. The hardest part is usually getting the old mounts to let go of the sway bar. Line up the new bushings just as the old ones sat, and bolt everything down firm.
What Type Of Sway Bar Bushing Should Be Used On The BMW 733I?
Rubber bushings bring you closest to how the car felt when it left the factory—soft, quiet, and forgiving even on rough roads. Polyurethane feels firmer and brings a bit more growl to fast cornering; people who drive hard like the added response. The trade-off is sometimes more noise and a stiffer ride. Rubber soaks up more road chatter, but can wear down sooner. Poly lasts longer and holds its shape. Consider how you drive—daily commutes and comfort call for rubber, while spirited or sporty driving gets more out of poly.
How Long Does It Take To Replace A BMW 733I Sway Bar Bushing?
Rookies might spend an afternoon wrestling with rusted bolts, but the work itself isn’t complicated. Two hours is a fair guess if everything wants to come apart. With a helper or impact wrench, you could be rolling back out in an hour. Ten minutes per side is rare, but it happens when nothing slows you down. Sticky bolts or dirty threads add time, so have some penetrant spray handy.
Do Sway Bar Bushings Affect Alignment On The BMW 733I?
Swapping bushings won’t change your alignment numbers. The sway bar itself doesn’t adjust the wheel angles—it simply connects the left and right sides of the suspension. If steering feels off or the car pulls, check toe and camber, but not because of the new bushings. A fresh install may highlight other old parts that need attention. If you touch other suspension pieces, then book an alignment for peace of mind. Otherwise, drive and enjoy.
