Has anyone experienced a squeaking sound in the back of their M35/45 sports rear suspension. I clearly hear it when im going over speed bumps in my neighborhood and makes me wonder what the hell is making that squeak. The car only has 27k miles on it.Also the drivers side rear wheel makes a rattling/clicking noise over bumpy roads and its been to the dealer twice for that issue and they couldnt find what was wrong with it. It could be the shock since it does seen like it has a tiny leak of oil on it but who knows. My center channel speaker also makes a loud rattle on a cold morning when going over bumpy roads too. After 15 minutes the rattle seems to go away which is weird.I'm curious if anyone has experienced these issues before cause the M45 is a wonderful car and i would hate to see it at the shop all the time because of odd noises.

You need to see if you can get SteveTheTech to chime in on this one. The only reason I say this is because you are not the first person to complain of this clicking sound coming from the rear of the car when going over bumps.You might want to ask steve and search around this site for that clicking problem in the rear and see what resolved it.

yeah steve is great and very helpful when it comes to dealing with issues. he has told me the clicking sound was from the shock but when it was at the dealer they couldnt confirm the problem which got me mad and upset at the same time cause it was the second time its been there. anyways thanks.

I'm 99% sure that if you have a 2006, and you have clicking/clanking form the rear going over bumps, you probably need the brake cable adjusted.

It is a known issue and there is a TSB/ITB on it.

go to infinitihelp . com, and pull up ITB05-040.

or I can email it you.
