suspension problems?

[wheels]

has anybody ever had problems with thier front suspension or any suspension (not the bushing clunk), specifically a metal to metal scraping type sound when they are compressed and on the rebound too. more so when it's cold. if so what was it and how did you fix it, muchly appreciated.

oh and is there any other mp3's on vancouver island if so where. i'm in comox.

This is the front swaybar bushings. It is normal, as they are polyurethane and will do this in the cold. Supposedly getting them greased helps the problem, but only for awhile. It is not degrading your handling like the rear clunk though.

I wouldn't call it normal But yes, front bushing replacement and greasing will cure it for approx 10 mos. Dealer should cover that without problem. I suggest dropping off at night, so it can sit and they can reproduce problem easily. Good luck!
