Noise

[ms6utah]

I've been having a creeking noise from my front suspension for quite some time now. The dealership was no help on this. Anyone? I think it's my struts but i could be wrong. Also when i take a dip at an angle my car creeks from the B-pillar area. Suggestions?

I'm having the same problem, however I noticed it only seems to appear on certain road types; I think it may be road noise from my tires. It appears most prevalently on one particular road that has a line/crack running through it, which is what makes me think it's noise from the tires. I could be wrong, but there are only two places that I have noticed it happen, and they are on certain stretches of road. Let me know what you find out in case it's something else.

P.S. OP, I live in Sandy.

I cant say I have experienced this with my MS3, Did you take a mechanic for a ride to try and recreate the noise?

I'm guessing your on stock suspension still, does your car bounce over dips and bumps?

there is a tsb for the lower control arm bushings that go bad, where the whole lower control arm is replaced.

I am and a few other guys thanks to this guy^^^ maybe I can talk to the dealer about it because they seemed a little perplexed with the noise.
