Suspension creaking

When I'm turning right somewhat vigorously, I can hear a bit of a creaking sound from the left front suspension. It's only audible with my windows down, and doesn't seem to come from any other corner. Is this nothing to worry about, or should I be concerned?

I've been nailing my 135i over the weekend - thrown into severe corners up mountain passes etc at very high speed and heard a couple of serious creaks from either side @ the rear. Late into Sunday the creaking is permanently apparent now, and is audible especially at lower speeds. Dealer check!

Suspension components squeak all the time. Unless your car is clunking, its pretty common that your car will make sounds on hard turns.
