Hey Guys,

So I have some prettttty bad squeaking coming from my front suspension. Before it would be occasional if there is a lot of weight in the car, and going over bumps, ect. But now, its prominent to almost the whole ride. Especially in the lower speeds.
I had my car lowered with B&G Springs at about 10k miles (at 93k) now.
I do have the extended warranty plan from the dealer, but I'm sure thats going to get me no where since I have aftermarket springs ont he car.

Any suggestions to what this may be? And how concerned I should be about driving it? Not sure if its a bushing, or the shocks, or what.

Thanks

Ill try my best to explain what I mean here.

Did the springs come with a rubber/plastic sleeve that the goes on the spring, and wraps around the spring, around the bottom couple coils?

I have the eibach sportline lowering springs, and they came with that. As far as I know it is for preventing squeaks.

Just noticed, you have had them in for quite some time, probably didnt just start squeaking because of what I said.

You might just need a good lube job, and its a easy and cheep solution, if thats it.

And just some squeaking I wouldn't be worried about driving it.

 

Well if youre anything like me and you enjoy cornering and have a few k.m's on your car, it could be your strut mounts, i have 110,000 k on my 09 and have similar noise thought not while im just driving in a straight line down the road. at any rate i would look into it, you might even be able to replace the bushings which are relatively cheap by themselves, depending on how far its progressed

 

Im currentlynlooking for bushings that are more durable myself, like a poly or something cuz im pretty sure the stock ones are just steel, anyways ill be changing mine soon and i was actually thinking of getting those same springs. besides the noise how do u like them?
