squeeking

[Zimmer]

Just got my car back today. They replaced the upper strut supports. They claim they still hear the noise but its definitive less. I didn't hear it at all on my drive from the dealer back to work but I took it easy and I've yet to head back to the bad Boston roads still at work :'( The tech's wife just had a baby so he was out and didn't have an opportunity to take it for a spin to compare with his speed. They tell me it might be the same in all speeds but I doubt it. If its bad or comes back they said take it back for the Tech to work on it some more....

Are you sure that thisis whats causing the noise? i've had so many people check and they all say that everything looks good. Help me please!!!

 

[Zimmer]

That's what they tell me. If it comes back I'll bring it back...

I had a different noise under my front cowl but you could hear that from the cab ... windows rolled up driving at like 30 mph didn't take much to make that noise occur...

So, someone got a clear answer on the cause of that coin/ping sound from the front suspension?
I've been hearing that noise over bumps and cracks for some weeks. It's getting worst and consistent now. I'm due for a service in 1500 miles, it can wait until that time I beleive.

like i posted in another thread, there is a TSB for the bushings in the lower control arms. They go bad and the whole lower control arm has to be replaced.

It will cause a squeak noise when they are bad.

whats the thread or the TSB doc if you have? my service dept said they've never seen this before ... hrmm the noise is coming back so I'll be back. thanks tho

 

[TropicalDelight]

its not a thread. Its a tsb's that the dealer can look up. I don't know where to find it on the internet.

 

[Zimmer]

did you have this done? Because whatever they replaced they said they replaced "with the same designed part" so it will happen again except this time it happened REAL quick again I could hear it taking a hard turn today which bothered me I'm gonna have to call 'em back... neways thanks

i've been to the dealer like 5 ******* times! someone help me out with this noise. Wheres the TSB? does that mean mean there is a recall on the bushing? i want to kill people b/c of this noise. HELP!!!

 

[Zimmer]

I can ask my friend unless someone else has it they have access to some of the manufacturers...

 

[Corndogler]

My made the noise today, then I went over a bump and it stopped. It's the second time it has made the noise since I bought the car over 6k miles ago. I guess I'll just wait until I can reproduce the noise consistently so I can show the dealer, unless someone pinpoints the problem so we can take them in and get them fixed.

 

[GullyBoy21]

Help Me!!! i need to know what the problem is.

Funny I had my speed in at about the same time

Which Tech worked on your car. I didn't realize Omar was out on Paternity leave. The Service writer Dick told me that there were three speeds in the same day as me and the tech said all three sounded the same. I'm going to have to talk to them about that.

I don't know which tech worked on it. They called me and told me to bring it back if it comes back and Omar can look at it, but I mentioned others have stated they have the same problem and he told me my car was the first one they've seen with this particular problem so either I have something completely different going on or something screwy is going on.

 

[Antonio DiMarco]

I'll have to bring it back when...

...Omar get's back. I think it maybe one of those situations where a different tech worked on it. But I'm not that concerned. I've had great luck with Sentry. They've never let me down.

 

[Zimmer]

well the reason they said bring it back if it continues they'll have him drive it since he owns one he may be able to compare ... ya their good the only concern is I just noticed my driver's side rear brake rotor is not wearing properly. I have two wear marks on the exterior of the rotor and interior of the rotor. There is a center "stripe" where no wear is present. What bothers me is that the car was just in and they checked off brakes were excellent so that means they didn't look OR it just happened over this last week which I find a little hard to believe... but who knows.

 

[Quiksilver05]

I am having the same issues! It drives me crazy and mine is an 07 as well. I took mine to the dealers and they said mine were good but when I come to a slow stop I can kind of feel the car wobble like if the rotors are warped or something and it does squeek sometimes

 

[Zimmer]

anyone ever resolve this?

 

[wldchld]

i get the same noise and i have a friend who use to have a speed and he had the same noise. lol it gotta be somewhere. has anyone had a brake job on the front and still have the noise? anyone with coilovers have the same noise? gotta be a process of elimination... i havent had either yet so i can not say. i have lowering springs and sway bars and still have the noise. so it aint that! lol what else can it be?

 

[Matt_MS3]

Thought I was the only one with these noises, but apparently there's a whole lot.... The noises started a few weeks after I installed the Cobb Springs and sway bars, so I thought it had something to do with that but it doesn't sound like clunking, more like squeeking.... I hear the noise from the front right everytime I brake at low speeds and hit bumps at low speeds.
I'm going to Surgeline tuning in Portland next Saturday and have them take a quick look at it. I'll keep you guys posted.
