Hi all - I noticed on a drive out today that I had some squeaks intruding into the cabin.
When I got home I pushed up and down on the rear of the car and it seems the rear springs are squeaking like a cheap hotel mattress.
Looking under the car the springs are quite shielded - any ideas how and where to lube them to stop the squeaks?
Cheers
Motorcycle Chain Lube is the stuff.
I use Halfords own, or Castrol
Both have fixed nozzles which allow you to direct a good squirt. It penetrates between the leaves, then dries (in a few seconds) to a white wax.
Best to jack up the back of the car first, to take the load off the spring.
Also, taking the rear wheels off gives easier access.
