apparently this is happening to many people. Seems to be mostly to people coming out of a cold winter. Maybe soemthing got affected by the constant cold and now other parts are expanding from the wormth, but something is damaged/compressed.

 

Mitsu checked out my car and ordered new rear struts for me. Sounds like they get alot of this problem and struts are on back order.

 

I had the creaking problem BEFORE i put my eibach springs on, and the dealership said they couldn't pinpoint the noise (but they heard it). They sent me away saying they greased the bushings and what-not. That's all they did. I plan to take it to a different dealershio soon and see if i get REAL answers.

 

I just got back from the dealer, and they said it was the trailing arms, specifically the bushings. They also said they had a couple of other Lancers with the same problem.

They had to get the parts tonight because they weren't available locally. So tomorrow morning I'll get that fixed.

 

I called to check to see if my rear control arms came in and they are backordered. It's been 2 weeks already! They should just do a recall since it is happening to pretty much everyone..
