Antihero1981 8 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 could be the rear springs tightly compressed , mine do it all the time when i have passengers in there , get some good grease and put it on , should work for a while , could be the helper springs/spacer Link to post Share on other sites

HAMMER_VR6 0 Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 Stripped my rear collies today and greased everything. When the car was in the air i lifted the rear beam up and down and it is definately the powerflex bushes that are squeaking. The bush is tight in the rear beam but twists in the chassis bracket when going over bumps. They are only 6 months old so not worn. my car is lowered and probably puts extra stress on them but i cant be doing with this creaking squeaking all the time. Link to post Share on other sites

Bigjobbo 0 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 I lathered the axle bushes in copper slip to avoid the annoying squeak. Link to post Share on other sites
HAMMER_VR6 0 Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 this is still going on, has anyone actually managed to permanently solve this rear suspension (when lowered) squeak. it's embarrassing to take people in it, and it's getting to the point when I'm thinking of selling the car. please help me to regenerate my vr love Link to post Share on other sites
