What can I do to relieve the squeaking and wheezing over speedbumps?
Conaero, Where did you find the torque setting for them? IIRC it's not given in the workshop manual. Could be wrong though.
@bathdoger, do you have poly bushes in the upper arms fitted?
Mine need doing on the V6 again!! Lasted about a year, she chews them for fun with the heavy engine
Smaky, the top bolt should be to the correct torque setting, I overtighened them, as I am heavy handed, and they failed.
I do take your point about cheap arms.
So.....................what can I do to relieve the squeaking and wheezing over speedbumps? Anything?
Lubing them is a short term repair which if your going to that extent you may aswell replace them, TRW make the OEM ones and they come pre-greased ready to just fit, ALL aftermarket ones come dry and it is these which wear out within a year.
