Why is my car creeking??? FIXED!!! OMG!!! FIXED!!!

**lKoRTy** · 08-08-2007, 11:11 PM

But i did use grease today and put it all over the rubbers on top and bottom and even metal parts and what not of the strut and spring.. and the sound didnt even change... Could the rubber itself be worn so much that not even grease can stop it from making that sound?

P.S. don't mind the 1st video - there were a lot of scratching there lol
refer to 2 other ones.

Yep, sound like sailing a boat... F'ed up thing is, it happens only when it is hot for me :? .

I'll stay tuned in....

hmmm i will stop by the dealer and just order new rubbers. I mean hell, what else can be creeking with rubberish sound down there, that compresses when i stop and expands when car falls back. :-/

**mtcavity1** · 08-09-2007, 01:19 PM

I am going to say "rubberish" 10 times today because it sounds so cool...

Let me know your outcome...

**lKoRTy** · 08-09-2007, 04:57 PM

lol.

Mine also sounds almost constant when i cut my wheel to the left and back up... but its not the axles, its something rubber. Do you have that sound while backing up as well?

**mtcavity1** · 08-09-2007, 05:37 PM

I could easily mistake my car for yours from the vids! I replaced the tie-rod inner/outer and got an alignment 6 months ago, with the inspection 4 months ago (by very meticulous mechanics) and everything was great.

**lKoRTy** · 08-09-2007, 05:58 PM

but your saying that now you starting to have the same rubberish sound as in the lasat 2 vids?

**mtcavity1** · 08-09-2007, 06:00 PM

Yes, for the past 2 weeks...

**lKoRTy** · 08-09-2007, 08:09 PM

hmm.. have u tried messing with the rubber on top and bottom of the springs? I am pretty positive it has something to do with it because when i pull up to my driveway and turn left on it (going on the curb) when my left wheel hits it, it makes the sound.. so obviously it's when the spring compressed.. But i greased it all up there and it still does it :-/

FIXED FIXED FIXED LOL DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHAT COULD'VE BEEN DOWN THERE???

is that the motor mount? its hard to tell what is what from a pic

**seth98esT** · 08-11-2007, 09:01 PM

Its the rear trans roll stop/mount. If its squeaking, Id take it off and inspect it, might need replaced.

**glantv699** · 08-11-2007, 09:17 PM

man my front axle region has been noisy lately, i should make some videos and have everyone diagnose it for me...

you were totally scraping in that video lol

glad WD-40 made your G healthier

**DOHCstunr** · 08-11-2007, 09:26 PM

wd40 wont' last long... and the way you drive,
divided by the short lives of those rear mounts.....

says you might consider replacing it,

definatly take it off for inspection.
if its fine... coat it with lithium lube... or that energy suspension grease. so water won't allow it to dry up.

also.......

How about cleaning up that wiring?

**lKoRTy** · 08-11-2007, 09:30 PM

Whats a rear mount and where does it live?

its that thing you think is squeeking

**lKoRTy** · 08-11-2007, 10:13 PM

Ahh, well, it doesnt anymore, i think it started because of the intense heat we had here. up to 101 degrees.. But hey if wd-40 will wear out then i guess i will take it off and see whats up.
