View Full Version : Squeeking/creeking
I have a very annoying creeking noise coming from my nearside front suspension when I go over speed bumps
It's fully poli bushed with fk coilovers and strut brace, could it be the bushes? I put copper grease on them when I fitted them
It's getting really annoying and only comes from the nearside
did you do the TCA bolts up tight when the car was in the air, or on the ground?

Basically because you've stiffened everything up on the front there is less movement so everything like your shocker tops and springs with be creaking under pressure as you turn around corners.

Wd40 Everywhere!!!!! lol

I done both wile up on stands and on the floor
I'll wd40 everything as it's quite annoying, I've actually started making the sound myself when I know it's gonne happen lol
WD40 will do absolutely feck all.
you want a proper silicone based bush lube. Copper grease is crap
I can get silicone grease from my work would that work? Can I refit the bushes without damaging them?
