Steering Clunk

Ball joint wear. 100% sure. Think about it, since you are stationary the inner joints aren't being flexed or moved at all. Only moving part is the ball joint itself.

Default Steering Clunk

Ball joint wear. 100% sure. Think about it, since you are stationary the inner joints aren't being flexed or moved at all. Only moving part is the ball joint itself.

They are $30 replacements on z1.

Do you notice any creaking coming from driver side when going over bumps?

Also do you notice the car unable to travel down the road in a relatively straight line? If the car tends to drift left or right you can bet your bottom dollar it is the ball joint. Replace it ASAP. A failure at highway speeds will kill you and others.
