  • Squeaky suspension?

    Ive noticed lately (past week or so) that over bumps and what not my suspension has made a soft squeaking noise. I just had it in for a service and eveything should all be looked after cosmetic wise.
    What could be causing this squeaking?
    Thanks

      more than likely sway bar links and bushings.
      mk4's are famous for that.
      the bushings are generally the culprit hard to check unless you hear it on
      a test drive.

          Really easy to do, honestly 1 nut, 1 bolt, easy access, and the parts are no more then $20 a side. I didn't even bother to jack up the car for this one, took 20 mins with interruptions.

            Thanks guys, Ill take a look at it tomorrow.
            What exactly would I be looking for? Probably a worn down bolt?

              Must be nice to have such easily serviced bushings...when the stupid control arm bushings went on my old A4 I tried re-loading em with grease then just replaced all of the control arms at C1.... :(
