no updated parts yet, but summited concern to TCI, possible might have an updated part in the future. but for now i lubricated with rubber grease and noise went away.

so it's the swaybar bushing that's needed lub? or somewhere else?

The Nx Tech Tip has replacement parts for the front sway bar bushings...updated bushings.
I would assume that fiveseven lubed the IS bushings to cure the noise.
Nothing a lube can't cure!

yup, thats correct, had to take out the sway bar mount to get to the bushings, take it out and lube the inside of the bushing and install everything back.

Cool, thanks for the info. I have the SARD sway bar and bushing in mine already, so I guess I won't have that problem.
