hey guys,
So i have a question to ask you guys. For the past couple of weeks, my front passenger wheel has been making a hugeee squeak that it is almost impossible to ignore. I thought at first that it were my breaks, but i can hear the squeaking noise even when my car is parked and i get in the car. However, i should tell you guys that i put on some espelir springs as well as tokico d-spec shocks. So my assumption with all of this is that it is my shock that is making the noise. Does anyone else have any idea of what may be creating the noise?

btw, if it is the shocks, would tokico replace it?

thanks in advance guys!

 

Did you grease your bushings? If not that is probably the reason for the squeak. I just found this out because I have the same problem.

 

Bushings you say? And where would we find these Bushings?

 

in the clamps that secure the sway bars.

Ahh thank you my friend

 

okay i will try that, thanks man .

btw, did the squeaking noise sound like when you step on the breaks and makes that high screeching noise? hahah because it kinda sounds like htat. :/

 

I think so. Basically it occurs when I slow down and go over speed bumps in cold weather. If I go a little less than 5mph over them they squeak, but if I completely stop and then go over them they don't squeak. I went over them this week in warmer weather, about 70 degrees compared to 40, and there was no squeaking. When I find some time I am going to get the bushings greased by either going to Mazda, or buy trying to do it myself.

 

wait, the bushings you're talking about, are they the ones that hold the sway bars in the middle? or the ones that attach to the arms of the wheels?

 

the ones in the center that hold the bar to the car..

thanks swoope ima work on my car this weekend and hopefully that'll fix it.

 

I thought there was a mouse in your car...
