bloody squeak!

Post by jamesandtheopenroad »

The ol' girl has a bloody annoying squeak coming from the nsf suspension assembly - and I'm guessing it's a bush, but which one?

Had the upper wishbone bushes replaced a few months back so don't think it's those. And it only happens when the van is moving - rocked the van when stationary - nothing.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Right, i'll have a look. Is it an easy fix or best left to a pro?

Replaced mine, and they started squeeking about the same time after! Let me in on the secret cure when you crack it. Whilst I continue with a squirt of WD 40 or similar every week or two.

KamperKev is right - even new ones can develop a squeak soon after.
