Serge Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 its been a year nd still the noise..how long till it breaks in?Check your spring mounts, sway bar links, everything. Make sure everything is tight and solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erikv11 Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 when my car did that it was because the spring seats were ruined. After one year running TC's.check out this link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickLayer Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 I just fixed this problem on my 850 yesterday. and I use fix very loosely.what I did to stop the squeeking is spray the top of the suspension in the engine with a heavy duty lube. squeek is gone. but now I can hear the ticking in my engine..... you win some you loose some! now if they they had a can to fix that! but do not take this as a perminant fix. it is mostly likely your spring seats. and should be replaced. it helps on the ears though.
