suspension noise

[strobhen]

? for everyone about suspension noise

been noticing some groaning from my back end during tight turns (more than 90 degrees) at moderate speeds (10-15 mph)

groaning is kinda like the sound of a ship buckling under pressure in a movie.

Well, I pushed down on the car to see how the shocks & springs are. And my driver's side rear spring is very squeaky. Easily audible. Not a high pitched squeak, is hard to describe in terms of something everyone may understand.

Is this a problem or something to not worry about?

Thanks

I had my car do the same as you described and it ended up being the rear end. I changed the rear diff fluid and my problem went away. Your car is new so I don't know if this is the problem or not but it sounds exactly the same as mine.

Also I am running the Auburn LSD and you have the Zexel Torsen. They work differently so once again I'm not sure if this is the problem.

Hope this helps.

You might want to check your Lower control arm bolts, on the back, cuz mine are aparently out of torque specs, cuz i have that weird noise from the passenger side rear. There are a lot of people that have that noise, and from what they have told me is that you probably need to tighten the bolts, to your lca. I still am having that problem, i had posted it before. somebody told me to tighten them between like 65foot lbs, and i had my tires rotated, and i had them do this, and they were alread at least that tight. so I don't know what to tell ya. but you might want to check those lca bolts
