Hey everyone .. I recently just had the dealer fix the "axle click" noise .. he put some lub and all new bolts .. when I got home I noticed a squeak noise coming from the rear .. it went away but now it's back .. a side note is that I'm driving on 350z rims (I believe 17") until Monday as mine are being powder-coated and I have noticed a squeak noise from them before but it was a different squeak that has since gone away (any chance it's the rims??) .. if anyone knows what this noise COULD be please help because I'm going back to the dealer Wednesday for something else and I'd like this to be fixed .. maybe it's not lubbed enough or a bolt is loose ?? when axles are taken out and put back in do they just make noise for a little ?? thanks a lot


help

 

so I was reading the service sheet and it says they put Molykote on .. anyone have any issues with this ?? any ideas on that noise before I go ?? could it really have anything to do with the rims since they don't really belong .. I'm lost

 

This isn't any big deal, have the dealership check out the squeak when you take it in. When I first read your thread I thought it might be rear wheel bearings or a u-joint....both are still possibilities.

thanks a lot for the reply .. so do you think this noise could just be from them lubbing and putting the axles back in ?? they were going to give me trouble because my original warranty expired on 03/31 and I was there 04/02 but they fixed this on "good will" .. I just don't want them saying this is a "new" issue and me having to pay the $100 deducdible from my extended haha .. I'm hoping it is related to the rims but maybe they just need to retorque things down .. it's the story of my life with this car lol I go somewhere with one noise, get it fixed and leave with two more

 

Did you ever find out what caused the squeak? i have the same problem and cant figure out what it is.
