Car Squeaking
Thursday, October 22, 2009 10:13 AM
Everytime I turn or change lanes my car has this horrible squeak coming from the front end. The ride has gotten a bit rougher over the past summer.

Could this be signs of my struts going?

Thanks.

It could be a number of things, Do u have aftermarket suspension lowered coils and struts?. Or stock?. You can do a few simple things to test youre suspension, Called a bounce test, push on the front hood or right or left fennder area, If youre struts bounce more then 2 times u need new struts. For coils you will see if u have any sag thats usually the sign of worn out coil springs. Also how long has it been since the front end of the car has been greased, Might just need grease job on youre tie rod ends, Not sure if youre cavalier has grease fitting on youre balljoints if so grease them as well. Thats basically about all need to do Save some cash,

Good Luck.
