Suspension Noise

s4avt · 07-19-2008, 01:13 AM

pretty often, when i hit the bump or make a sharp turn, I hear kind of squeaking suspension noise comming from passanger front and rear side.

Anyone experienced similar situation? could be bad shock? or pads?

so I was thinking if I get KW V2, it might fix it...

what do you guys think?

Squeaking is usually ball joints and sometimes swaybar bushings. Not likely a shock/strut or spring. Bad shocks/struts usually make a clunking or rattling noise.

But I do think that after you repair the noise, you should still get the KW's!!

could be ball joints, tie rod ends, stabilizer links, swaybar bushings...lift it up take a look at their condition

I had this on my wife's c240 jacked it up and put some lub on the swaybar bushings. That was it.
