[s-cars] Binding Suspension? Creaking Sound?

[Cody Payne]

Is it common to blow a Bilstein shock in about 4 months time?  Car does seem a little bouncy..maybe that shock is blown..hmmm.  Any warranty recourse w/ shox.com?

I just had this similar noise. Was a bad RF Bilstein shock and worn
upper shock mount. Now, with new shocks both sides, all is well again.
Helped my alignment too.

Gents,
I have submitted this question before but didnt receive any response so
wanted to try again.  Searching the audifans.com site returned no
results of value.  I have a H&R/Bilstein Suspension on my 92 UrS4 w/
corrective ASW camber plates.  What I have been experiencing lately is a
creaking sound on the front end of the car.  Sounds like either
suspension, or Sway-Bar Bushings.  It can happen at very low speeds like
in a parking lot or faster when the suspension is compressed.  Visual
inspection reveals no lose parts or any visible worn out bushings or
rubber grommets on tie-rods etc.  I can replicate nearly 100% every time
drive and is getting annoying.

Suggestions?

Cheers

cp
