Sounds like something is wrong
Thursday, April 07, 2005 6:33 PM
First off i have an auto, all stock suspension and stuff like that. I dont know much about suspension....yet.

When i put it in drive, it sounds weird, like rubbing a balloon (does that make sense). When i step on the throttle, it doesnt do it, just when i put it in drive and rolling. Does anyone know what that could be?

Also when i go over bumbs, it sounds really squeaky. What could cause that?

I want to upgrade the suspension over the summer, but does anyone know that parts cause these noises. It started like a week ago, and i dont like it.

Sorry if these are dumb questions, but i want to learn about my suspension now.

as for the squeaky sound, it seems that u have a bad strut mount, and since u are just going to upgrade your suspension, just get new mounts then. and for the "balloon noise" it could be a broken motor mount or tranny mount, im not that sure tho. someone else here will probably know tho.


this is my sig

So i probably have a bad strut mount, and either a broken motor mount/tranny mount. Well i have rksport's lower and upper motor mount and they look fine, so maybe a tranny mount.

If i was to get some aftermarket struts, does that come with the mount or is the mount separate?
