Hi,
any ideas as to the squeak, i have lubed every rubber point with silicon spray, grease gunned all 4 suspension nipples until it oozed out.
wheels off no squeak, wheels on and left or hand lock squeak...also the pushing up and down its squeaks:dunno:....i am going squeaking mad the noise is noticable:frown:
Any practicle suggestions more than welcome.......could it be the track rod ens but on inspection the rubber is all in tack and not split as for the rubbers all look ok:dunno:, steering rack is positive with full movement......
confused and all squeaked out
No m8ty but all this info helps and reminds me areas I have checked and crossed off the list, all gassed up suspension and no rub marks either top or inside wheel arch, nor does the wheel touch anything inside......its a a bit irritating as the noise does sound a bit, now if it was to break it would solve the squeak it does not alter when transporting a passenger, it sounds when bounced and sounds when turned, could it be the suspension strut? as it has rubbers top and bottom, could the ones underneath have perished? or moved? just a very wild guess............
Well some good news, gagged the wife and its so quiet in the car now....no seriously, I checked each shock absorber and found the passenger side could be compressed with just my fingers? the drivers side was ok......new gas adjustable shocks from Sussex classics and now no noise, no squeak or creek..........fitted these today in the rain.
One nightmare was the passenger side top absorber nut had been fastened all the way down? and would not release and had to split the nut/dremel with cutting discs, good laugh that was...anyway this may be my solution to this issue but the old shocks not working came as a shocker
Thanks for all the advice folks much appreciated
