Squeaks.

Post by philip »

It squeaks! My car that is . High pitched, seems to come from all round the car. sounds like child's squeaky toy. I thought it was the eyebolt bushes but they've been changed now. Still squeaks. Where should I look next?

Did you use poly bushes? They tend to squeak unless you grease them before putting them in.

Should use white grease on them - although not sure of the quality of the cw items.... You should be able to get spray-on white grease and use it!
