creaking TT fixed

Took my TT to the dealer because it had been creaking. They lubed up the suspension and sway bar and now it is as quiet as a mouse. SO if any of you have a creaking TT get the suspension and sway bar lubed.

Do they have grease fittings or did they lube it up some other way?

Re: creaking TT fixed

it's probably going to comeback.if it does,most likely it cracked the ride side swaybar bushing sleeve.if so,it will need a new swaybar.so far the count stands 8 out of 11.

Re: Do they have grease fittings or did they lube it up some other way?

Not sure how they did but it took them a day and half. They lubed up the suspension first, but when they road tested it it still creaking when turning. They then lubed up the sway bar and then road tested it again. This time no more creaks. If yours is creaking then have the dealer try lubing. BTW - my dealer is Scottdale Audi in Az.
