I got this annoying bed spring type squeak coming from the rear of my car. My roommate thinks it's my springs. I have no idea what it could be or to even know what to search the forums for to figure it out. It happens when its cold....I did install my new Eibachs a month ago, and some people say it;s natural since theyre new springs. I just wanna make sure. Any info would be appreciated!

 

do the eibach's have the rubber on the dead coils? if not that's where your problem is try and search around for some spring silencers.

it could be just because theyre new, i would guess itll go away once they get some miles on them.

 

Parking brake... Engage it hard and then pull the release lever a couple of times to release it....

YEA! i was thinking that too, i just realized it made that sound SOMETIMES when i had my parking break on. you could here a squeak when i press my trunk down too. im going to try that now, since my car is parked right infront of my office....and not clock out.

 

blinks, my friend was on eibachs and his squeeked too.
could be, could be not...i think it's kinda hit/miss w/eibachs squeeking

 

i told you my car has been nothing but a headache since my accident!

i did the parking brake thing, so far no noises when i press down. we'll see later during lunch when i drive.

 

If your on coils then i'd say get used to it, cuz it happens often to me.

 

Well I hope that worked. It scared the **** out of me one time, I got out of the car and it was squeaking and I got scared, then I got back in it for some reason and I heard it again. I did the engage disengage thing then it was fine. It was a good scare though. Again good luck

no i wish i was on coils ha ha. yeah it scared me at first, dropped a few ca ca stains, then i got used to it. then my ipod died today so all i hear is the squeaking sound and yeah, its irritating. thanks for the advice guys!
