I've had the Buddy Club RS coilovers for about 2 months now and the front passenger side is making this squeaking noise while I drive. I sounds like a dry rubber on metal sound. Not a rattle but more of a squeak. I've retorqued all the bolts and did a visual inspection with no luck. Anyone else have this problem with the buddy clubs or any other coilover?

Did you preload the suspension arm before tightening everything?

RevJunky

of course!

John_Z

Hmmm all I can think of would be your bushings. Maybe a little silicone spray would cure the squeak?

The two bushings on the upper A arm and the one on the lower control arm that the coilover bolt goes goes through.

i have this too.....ganley just diagnosed this as the RF upper strut mount.

not sure who to call - buddy club, my local distributor??

(it's EXACTLY as you describe revjunky)

I'd start with the people who sold them to you, see what they say or who to contact for warranty repair. If there's no warranty then you probably contact the same people but with your hat in your hand

yeah, may have to bend over for this one.

I tried spraying some silicone lube on the shock shaft and it solved the problem... for a while... it came back but not as bad as before.
