2001 CL Type-S making front end noise? Weird!!
2001 CL Type-S making front end noise? Weird!!
One day I was in CT and it was really cold about 5-10 degrees and I turned my wheel and I heard this squeak sound like wtf is that.....So just before x-mas I had all my tires changed and the problem was gone and also the temperature was in the 40-50 range....Now that the temperature has dropped to the low 20's the noise has come back and its the most annoying thing ever. Front end both sides whenever I turn the wheel...
So has anyone had this same problem??? Might I need to get some things greased up or are my tie rods or struts messed up. Any help would be great, thanks in advance...cause i'm lost

Yeas I had that same problem , my car souded like it was gonna fall apart.
How old are your shocks? My shocks had 140K on them and they where way past shot.. They where a mess , all 4 were leaking bad..way overdue, chaged the shocks and springs (I got B@G shock/spring set for $500 that lowered the car 1 inch) and still had a little noise so I replaced the sway bar links with Moog and the bushings with polyurethane and all the noise was gone. Have u replaced anything to do with the suspention yet, what year is your CL and how many miles!?

You DEFF need new shocks and prob new Sway bar links
U can get MOOG sway bar links for like $80 for all 4 on rock auto..
You might also need the bushings that hold the front sway bar cuz that rubber and does deterorate after 10 years..

Yea...I have to go see my mechanic today...the thing that sucks most about this is that I just had all this work done in the summer on my '99 Toyota Solara SLE before I was in a accident and it was totaled in late September which ran about $800-$1000 with labor and parts....life..what a bitch
