Hi,

Hoping for some help.

I just replaced a wheel bearing that I thought was noisy. It is now more quiet, but there is still a squeak sound. What else could id be??????

Thanks for any help.
 
typically in tight low speed turns they make noise also check for torn boot

I checked for a torn Boots, it looked fine. Should I replace anyways?
 
check the back of the rotor and make sure the dust plate is not rubbing on the rotor.:rolleyes:

I replaced both my FWB, and while I was in there I saw that my tie rod ends were in very bad condition (replaced them at the same time), but I think possible your squeaking could be from your control arm bushings. Mine were also worn, I replaced them (have to be done at a garage as they are pressed), all front end noise has gone away....
 
When does it squeak? When the suspension moves, as in hitting a bump or something like that?

I'd look at the sway bar mounts and linkage. Maybe try spraying a little WD-40 around those rubber bushings, see if the squeak goes away.

I don't think those parts are very expensive, it wouldn't hurt to just change 'em.

Hope that helped,

Dan

I had 2 broken front sway bars one on a buick and other on my 2000 montana but like dan said it only made noise when going over bumps.
