there has to be a spray on lube that is VERY VERY good for creaking and squeeking suspension parts, camber arms, lcas anything that moves...

help please my suspension squeeks are pissing the hella outta me it sounds like a haunted house 24/7 when i roll over anything

HELP PLEASE

thanks

dont say wd40 cuz we all know it sucks and it makes it worse in the long run

 

White lithium grease

 

is that the brand or is that the material?

would kragen/autozone or other auto supply should carry them?

 

they should. its pretty standard stuff. cheap enough on top of it all.

 

its just a type of grease any auto parts store should carry it

 

It also makes it worst in the long run when you try to hide squeeks, you should just attempt to fix the suspension before making it even worst

 

a real common place is the sway bar bushings. the accords were real bad. try removing the sway bar brackets and remove the bushings and lube them up.silicone grease will do the trick.

 

very effective and long lasting?

i'll check during lunch hours

 

White lithium grease is a quick fix, as is wd40. It will come back within a week to a month.

 

A creak or a squeak usually means that the bushing is worn. Try to locate where it's coming from and replace that bushing(s).

I bought my DC2 and it did that. I bought the Energy Suspension master bushing set for like $240 and installed everything at my friend's shop. The car felt brand new after that and no more squeaks.

For a quick fix, though, some white lithum grease works wonders. You can even get it at Walmart, for about $2-3 a can. Look in the isle with WD-40 and other solvents like the brake cleaner etc.

 

Wd40

 

the silicon grease we use does.its down corring 50 a real thick silicon paste.
when you remove the sway bar bushings look for paint or rust stuck in the bushing if so then most likely you found the main source.
but noises like your getting are tough to diag over the internet and we all can only point you to fixes like mentioned from exp and trial and error.
please post your results .

 

i just heard the other day, that PAM works pretty good for squeaks and creaks.

 

fried chicken grease..

 

no, seriously though pam does work. i used it on my basement door, and it works. also used it on my jeep door, and its quiet now too.

 

thanks guys i just bought some valvoline white lithium grease from kragens lol

do i just sludge this around the bolts and bushings? do i need to take them off or will they seap thru if i sludge around all the stuff

 

Lube the inside of the bushing where it rides on the sway bar lube the out side of the bushing also

 

same for suspension bolts and camber bushings etc?

how long do i wait after applying this or is it possible to drive right after

 

you can drive right after

 

Not sure how your going to get the grease into the upper arm bushings and lubing the bolts will not do anything bit keep them from rusting

 

Best advice in this thread.

 

I have cheap@$$ OEM-replacement upper control arms I got off eBay about 2 years ago, and those things squeak like a **** due to the crap bushings in them. I have tried both white lithium and silicone grease and the squeak always came back in a couple weeks.

I'm planning on just spending the $190 or so for a pair of brand new OEM Honda upper arms.
