HRP Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Both front sunvisors on our 2002 LS430 have recently developed a horrible "squeek" which sounds more like an angry crow. The noise occurs with the rotation of the sunvisor on the plastic tube when the visor is rotated up and down either in or out of the clip above the inside rearview miror. I've used a silicon lubricant as far down the tube as the visor will extend without significant improvement. The noise does not occur with rotation of the visor to cover the side window. Only when the visor is rotated up and down (in any position, extended or not). Suggestions??? Thanks, HRP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, HRP Lithium grease will most likely solve your issue, and doesnt have evaporative tendencies like silicone lube. Lithium grease also now sells in a spray can with a straw as well. good luck!
