Hello all,
Over the past couple of weeks, my 1989 90q has developed some squeaks in the
rear. The car squeaks especially when I push in the clutch to shift gears,
or when I let the car slow down while in gear. Squeaks are also present
over some, but not all bumps. When the car is parked and I push down on the
bumper/trunk I also get a creeking noise coming from what seems to be both
sides. Any BTDT on repairing/masking squeaks for about 2 or 3 weeks? In a
couple of weeks I plan on suspension upgrades: any experience with the
2bennett coil-overs vs. ground-control or vortrag? What else should I
replace in the realm of strut mounts, bushings, etc. while I've got the car
apart? Also, are there any sites detailing the process and how labor
intensive is the work? I know that the ground-control coilover kit requires
welding new spring perches on.
TIA
