Yup. I do.

It's annoying as hell too. It's really only noticeable at low speeds. So, for instance, when I'm driving through one of the alleys downtown it echos like a motherf*cker between the buildings...sort of embarrassing really. It's also really noticeable when I'm getting in/out of the car.

I just got back in from the garage where I removed the rear springs, cleaned everything out, reseated them, and put everything back as it was...and it's still squeaking!!! Has anyone else had this problem? I know 'crazyitalian' did, but he never seemed to resolve the issue. I'm getting to the point where I'm tempted to give the entire back end a WD-40 bath...

Theres a service bulletin for the back brakes. This same thing kept happening and after 4 times of bringing it back they replaced both sets of pads and resurfaced all the rotors. Now squeak free

Really? What do the pads & rotors have to do with it though? I'm not braking when the squeaking happens... But hey, if this worked for you then I'll look into it!

Does anyone happen to have the link to that page with all the service bulletins?

it's not the breaks lol thats another issue, we're talking about the rear suspension.

basically, if you could go lean on and off your car, basically making it bounce, the rear suspension squeaks. the sound compliments my break screeching nice lol !

I need to take mine in then. Everytime when my e-brake is engaged when I'm parked it squeaks like a b**** when I get out of the car.

I'll call my local stealership and make an appointment. Glad I came across this thread. I was ready to just regard it as normal for a bit.

(I believe this marks my 100th post. NERDASM!)

DAAN.

Interesting...

I was just trying to see if others are having this problem, search Supension thread first and then I see this.

ESP, any update on it? Thanks.
