squeakin'

Hey peeps... I just lowered my CL with comptech and installed 19s.

( copy and past this> http://larims.com/gallery_detail.htm...cura&maxrows=1


and after about 3 months I am hearing this squeak while driving. Its really weird because now it squeaks at stoplights unless I put my tranny in neutral. Wus up with that? Did my harsher ride jiggle something loose? Im gonna get under it today to see if I can figure this out but if any body else has run into this problem let me know what you did to correct it. I have a crazy system to drown out the noise while Im alone but its embarrasing when Im on a date and this fucker squeaks. I drive a CRX to work so that I can save my CL for pleasure and speed but this shit is fucked up. Plus it just shouldnt sound this way.
Let me know what you think............ Thanks

Mine started to squeak, but not until almost 1 1/2 years and 15,000 miles.
I had the suspension lubed at Park Avenue Acura when I had my 15K service done.

I think it was the bushings on the Sway Bars.

Did the lube help? It must rain a lot in your area for it to start squeaking so fast. Ive got over 46k on mine now and its just starting...but then again I live in sunny California and I rarely have to drive in the rain. In fact I avoid driving the CL when it rains.

I will try lubin the suspension. Thanks.

Nahh... no sways yet but I found out what the problem was. The rubber mount that came with my cold air intake broke and caused the intake to rub against the metal around the intake pipe. I just zip tied it back for now until I get a replacement from AEM.
Thanks for the help.

Wow that the first time I heard someone in this site admit that it is not Acura fault but some shit aftermarket part that is making the CL squeak.
