Squeak on Front End

Featured Replies

Hi All

Just after a bit of advice please, had my SE just over a month now and on Saturday whilst driving down our street (over the darn speed humps!) the car started squeaking at the front. I do not drive fast over them at all - I learnt that lesson a number of years back in my old corsa!

Sometimes you don't hear it at all but just wondering if it's something to worry about that needs checking?

Cheers

Could be any number of suspension related things on any number of worry levels

 

Could be as simple as a dried out bush somewhere that needs greasing all the way up to a knackered strut/top mount.

 

If i had to guess i'd probably say antiroll bar bushes or if the squeak also has a knock to it then a knackered drop link.

I've known dry drop link joints which creaked without there actually being any play in the joints. The grease was dried out of them.

Thank you very much for the ideas, I will have my other half and dad have a look this weekend.

When my car was in the garage and I told them about the squeaks over speedbumps, they just greased everything up and it disappeared..

I had this on my vrs. I changed the console bushes and this fixed the problem.
