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.
