Squeaking Suspension!

[Hanleyrh]

got a 2 month old 182 Cup and ive noticed the the suspension has started squeaking! Anyone else had this problem?

I think the salesman term is "TADT Sir or Madam" (they all do that). Or both of mine did anyway - knocks, squeaks, leaks, whistles, funny smells. Remedy is to turn the radio up or be of victim of the aftersales experience.

Is it squeaking on full lock over uneven surfaces or is it all the time?

 

[Hanleyrh]

Pretty much just when I go over bumpy stuff. It sounds like the rear to me.

Maybe youve bought a Metro?

Its been discussed a lot but I still cant remember the name of the problematic bit, need to write it down as I have a service soon and want it sorted.

Front strut mount or something? Mine only does it on full lock over bumps, quite noisy though.

my 172 does it over the big yellow speed bumps,sounds like its from the front .

Yes, just been to the dealers to have a few problems looked at and the mechanic said they all do it, there is a mod which involves an angle grinder he has done it to his own car and it still comes back, left mine for now it only does it when turning right and going over something bumpy at the same time, my head said dont buy french crap but my heart said go for it
