Bushwack Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 On rough roads, the car rides as expected without complaint. But going 10 MPH over a speed bump, the front end sounds painful (like metal rubbing metal) as does the back end (but not so bad). Is this an indication to replace shocks/struts or could there be more involved? The car has 77,000 southern California accident free miles on the odo.

handmedownreatta Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 could be bad swaybar bushings.do you ever have the suspension greased? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushwack Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 The car is 6 weeks new (to me). I did an LOF and asked for the chassis to be greased. The noise up front sounds more life walking in wet...drenched sneakers then metal rubbing metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padgett Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Check the front sway bar bushings, they can disintegrate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
