hammer008 Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Recently, I noticed squeeking sounds when I go over bumps...it is not dependent on speed as it sound the same on the highway and in city... No rattles or thumps just cute squeekies that sound like someone is rubbing a styrofoam on a wet window. I thought it was something in the back seat...but I suspect it is the strut mounts from previous postings... Someone said they greased them...but can't find the post. Any help from the experienced... It reminds me of that cricket in the car commercial. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mxvr4 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Did you ever find out what the squeeky noise was? (sounds like styrofoam rubbed against glass) I have the same problem on '96 model, coming from front and rear. You can hear it the most as you go slowly thru parking lots, and go over small bumps or cracks/exspansion joints in the pavement. Getting ready to have the dealership take a look at it, and see if they can figure it out, but am curious if it's something I can fix myself. Thanks MXVR4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks MXVR4 In my case it was the leather rubbing against the baby car seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael V Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 My 94 was producing an annoying squeaking noise coming from the rear at low speeds (parking lots / speed bumps) and I paid a local mechanic $302 to replace the rear strut assemblies and it took care of the noise. The parts added another $209.01, total of $511.01. Expensive, I know, but I had the cash and was tired of hearing it. Part # 334134 @ $110.88 Part # 334133 @ $98.13 I hope this helps!

BBLexus Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I had the same problem with my 93 ES300 and the repair shop lubricated the rear bushings; cost $45 and it was fixed. It was an annoying sound that had me thinking it would be expensive to repair but turned out to be minor. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
