Hey all
Everytime i go over a speed bump/hump there is a squealing noise both at the front and at the back. It sounds like an old car. i'm guessing its the suspension.
Its a 2001 VRX Ltd Ed -105,000kms.
Is it normal or is something wrong.??

my front has started to do it, i think it has something to do with the shocks as i replaced the rear when i lowered the car, but not the front, and i can definately feel they're very worn.

The front springs/shocks on my 02 Advance do the same thing. Has been pi$$ing me off for the last 12 months. I'll be replacing my front struts/springs in next 2 weeks so I hope this will be sorted at the same time.

dry CV bushes, not a major issue, just some of the rubber/urathane/whatever the hell it is/ is no longer lubed.

Thanks guys.
Anyone knows the costs of replacing them with the stock VRX springs. Or will it be better to go aftermarket?
Any thoughts
Thanks

I have the same squeeking noise from the rear suspension too. Its a really load and annoying noise that disappears when it rains and the tyres throw water up and onto the bushes... I am living with it, just! I would hate to think what it will cost to replace all of the bushes in the rear end though. :cry:

Is it from the outside of the car or the inside because a few people including myself have had sqeaking front and rear windscreens which was replaced under warranty.
P.S Was really obvious reversing out of our driveway which is on a bit off a slope and when going over bumps (was really annoying) could hear the body flexing againest the seals.
If you do think it is this do a search because there is a posts about this on here.:D
