Odd noise

JdmInspireJ30 · Oct 2, 2008

So ya my front driver side strut area is still making a squeaking noise when hitting bumps and pushing down on that side even after i replace the broken damper fork, i have no clue what this noise is, everything seems to be in working order, it almost sounds like something is loose. but ive checked everything sway bar, end links so i dunno, any idea's or anyone else have this problem when they lowered there car?

Are you lowered on stock shocks? And what springs?

(far shot) cv joints?

CV joints don't squeak, they click/knock.

they are ground control spings, on stock shock's yes, but it almost sounds like something is rubbing but its checked alot. my cv boot is leaking but that would cause a clunk, not a squeek im hella confused....... but hopefully when i get the tein coilovers off JBuff it will all go away

could be the shock, since you did put lowering springs on stock shocks

when driving fast or slow?

slow = most likely ball joint, although you would have seen grease everywhereeeeeeee when replacing the fork.

endlinks make a "clanking" sound, almost like a pot having a cover put on it hard...and they would only make sounds over the harshest bumps. ask meh how i know all this :lawl:
