I have been hunting down a squeak for the longest time, I think I have found what is squeaking, but I don't know enough about suspention to know how to fix it properly. During hard left hand turns I THINK my rear right kinda hops and I get a loud sqeak that sounds like, dateeek...dataeek...dat......dah.
And I get a smaller squeak on the right hand turns, expecially if there is a small lip like a driveway or a change in pavement.
My first idea was the spare and jack, so I removed it, it still sqeaks. So I figured it was something in the suspention. I tryed rocking the car, and that was silent, so I crawled up under it and started yanking on different parts. If I pull back on the sway bar on the right side, I get the same sounding squeak, If I pull on the left side, I don't get a squeak.
After examining the rubber bushings, they look pretty dry with tiny cracks. So I figure this is the problem. So how do I fix it.
I plann on saving for the 1LE Sway bar kit, BMR SFC, and STB from LMperformance with all poly bushings, and I figure that would get rid of the squeak but, what can I do in the mean time.
