Squeaks in sub-zero temps

Well, winter is well and truly come to the Western Montana valleys. The high today was -2F. I hear sqeaks when sharp dips in the road are encountered. It sounds like the springs are complaining. Anyone else had this problem? <br> Otherwise I love the Quattro. I have YOKO 600s. I had them on my Saab for two years and they were impressive. I can get around so well that the only problem is that the SUV and Subarus won't get out of my way

Re: Squeaks in sub-zero temps

Same thing happens to me this year (I have a 97) -- I drive into to work every morning now so it's noticeable. I live in Washington, DC, and the "cold temps" so far are about 40-50 degrees F. Maybe I should get the strut mount points lubed or something?<p>Justin

I lived in North Dakota for two years and found that the noise you are hearing is probably comming from the sway bar bushings. You can try putting lithium greasde on them.
