I'm hearing a squeaky noise coming from the front end every time I hit a bump. I've change everything you can possibly change form upper and lower control arms to all of the bushings, anti-sway bar, etc. I replaced all front end bushings with polyurethane. A friend of mine suggested that I get the front end lubed. I tried it all but this, think this will work for me??? If anyone had this done please lte me know, thanks.

 

Thats the first thing I would have done (lube). Good luck.

 

is it like a high pitched er er noise?

 

Thanks for the response, but what is exactly being lubed and can I do this myself. Thanks again!!

 

You can say that, but when I go over a bump at 5 mph I hear it as the tire goes up than down.

 

I also always use lube first.

 

What exactly is being lubed? Maybe I can do it myself... Thanks.

 

Pep boys will usually inspect for free

 

I have the same problem. It's coming from the front right side suspension. It's kinda wierd though because it used to happen ALL THE TIME after i installed my Eibach prokit and my koni adjustables. Then it kinda stopped after about 2 months. About 2 weeks ago it started up again and it sounds even worse! It sounds like a bending metal sound and it happens when i go over a speed bump and the shocks rebound. Also, when i turn, it sounds like an old roller coaster i can be at a dead stop and turn the wheel and it kinda goes errrrr-rrrrrr (not power steering - i promise) like a bending metal sound. Its annoying and i am beginning to think that it may bew damaging something?? If i press down on the front right side of the car above the rim, it will sort of squeek too. I have put the car back on the rack to inspect, but i cant find anything wrong with it. I'm at a loss right now??

 

If its happenig everytime you turn and it sounds like a bunch of marbles grinding together then it probably is your CB joint which should get even louder if it's getting worse, if it is your CB joint then I suggest you get it fixed (around $500 Canadian, you convert for once ) anyways if you leave it for too, too long your axle will break and that might suck... good luck :P

 

the same shit happened to me, after putting my coilovers in. first it just squeaked a little bit, then the sound went away after about a week and a half. then, when i got my konis put in, it started back up. just a loud eeerrrr!! when going over a bump, or up a driveway. took it to my mechanic, he said a kick plate(?) was rubbing against the rotor, and straightened it. the sound was still there, but only a few days ago, it went away. i hate that fucking sound

 

have your ball joints checked out im pretty sure that is the problem, its also a recall do a search peace

 

i checked on that whole recall, my VIN isn't eligible
but i guess that's a good thing, right?

 

Thats so ironic, It comes then it goes. I notice that when it's warm out I don't hear shit, but when its cold I hear it, what the fuck!!!
This shit started happening about 2 months after I bought it, At this point its stock. I took it to the dealer and they changed the upper control arms and it went away, so I thought. I installed the Eibach pro kit with tokico shocks and 17' rims, sound went away. a couple of months later the shit starts happening again, at this point I went to about 3 mechanics at this point had it lifted and nothing. A friend of suggested that I change all stock bushings to polyurethane and I did over the ending of summer last year.

SORRY FOR THE DOUBLED REPLY I HIT THE ENTER KEY IN ERROR

 

Is this the lower ball joints and if its the problem how much does this cost to fix, thanks.

 

I think thats my problem. Last night I jacked up my car and removed the drivers side tire and notice the seal around the joint is split open. How much will it cost if you know? Thanks.

 

last i heard it was a recall....i didnt pay a thing for the repair since my wheel feel off my car and my axle got cracked...everything replaced for nothing. I think the ball joints are 50 beans a piece then labor over that...

 

Aight, good looking out.

 

Thanx guyz, i appreciate it! I am going to Miami tomorrow for the Winter Music Conference and i wont have a chance to check out the ball joints until next weekend - but i'll keep ya'll posted as to what the verdict is! Peace!
