Ok, as usual, I've read quite a few posts (while searching) and need to find other opinions. On my driver side I'm hearing a NASTY squeak BUT! its weird cause I hear it with my windows closed, but when I roll the windows down, it really doesnt change intensity. It sounds like those metal clips on panels when they start to go loose. FIRST thing I thought was something in my suspension cause it only squeaks when i've got a bounce or the car is jiggling. Its hard to point it out cause like usual squeaks, its "throwing its voice" so cant really tell where its coming from.

some more info:
I have air bags squeaks when at low height and not when I raise up to stock height. YEA, first thing you think it IS a suspension thing (possibly ball joints) however, since it only squeaks when car jiggles... lifting it just gives it a smother ride which stops the car from jiggling or bouncing. ALSO, I just changed a tie rod last week and checked my ball joints and they are firm... so that kinda makes me lead towards something just loose in the cabin.

I dont think anyone can really help here LMAO... It sucks cause it only squeaks when driving, and you can simulate the action while car is not moving...

anybody have any suggestions of what it could be or maybe a way to simulate the squeak so I can find it cause its hella annoying!!! :/
thanks

 

I have a squeak from my spring in my coilover, it happens when i raise the car and lower it and the spring is in a different position. I usually jus thave to reposition the spring and the squeak goes away....maybe something similar with your bags?

 

Hmm... maybe positioned improperly? Hm... something to check. I know when I put my rim on (my cheap universal ones) I had put one on "improperly" and got a nasty sound found that it wasnt offset right... so yea, something to check..

cheap ways first right

 

its a bird under there lol...

 

I have squeaking problems too... If your suspension is check out already and looks fine... Just live with it like everyone else here.

 

check your exhaust, and that all the hangers are there. Exhaust could be wobbling and making noises. Probably rubbing the control arms.

Check your spare tire, that it is bolted down tight.

I have a feeling its the pipes.

 

I have no spare! needed the space.....

wow yea! exhaust is a GREAT idea to check... Its coming from up front for sure... but thats a great suggestion thanks. (tomorrow I'll be doing some checking)... fridays are my only days to do anything :/

 

Well yesterday, I am driving home, and started hearing squeeking on some bumps. Well my exhaust is rubbing my Toms lower brace on some hard bumps.

 

hey, so how can I "know" its the pipes for sure? maybe shake them by hand? (thinking as I type)

 

oh and another member pm'ed me suggesting bushings as well... any comments on that? (will also be checking) that was something I was leaning towards... (gotta check everything anyways)
