Hey guys,
Theres a little bit of a problem with my car. There is squeaking coming from either the suspension or the shocks on my car. I am kind of a newb when it comes to the technical aspect of cars so bear with me. I would like to know how much you guys think it will cost to fix this. THanks for your time.

how many miles on it. might just be that you need new struts, if you want stock stuff just go to a local parts place and find out what new struts will be.

I got 69,213 miles on it right now. You think it could just be the struts? Thanks for your input.

Alright, I replaced the struts, and the mechanic lubed up the bushing, and IT STILL MAKES THIS NOISE!! My friends friend, lol, says that it could be my suspension since it lowered 2 inches. Did anyone else have this problem?? Its hecka annoying hearing that damn noise. Please POST. Thank you.

when lowering your car that much (2 inches) you need to get a camber kit without it yor going to get premature wear of suspension components which may result in your springs going bad so that may be the problem
i say go with eibach if you want to they are a good company but make sure its your shocks that are bad first!!!!!

you have aftermarket springs, just because they make noise doesnt necessarily mean anything is wrong with them. my friends integra squeaks really bad an all of his suspension work is brand new, some stuff just does that. if it bothers you that much you could sell them an try eibach. i ahve the pro kit an they dont make any noise. As for shocks with any aftermarket springs you really should consider investing in a quality shock, they makie a world of a differnece and any aftermarket springs will wear your stock shocks in no time they are weak.
