I live in an apartment that is like a hill but everyime I go up my car makes rusty sd

Hi I live in an apartment that is sloped like a hill and everytime I go up the slope to park my car in the designated spot and also when I go over speed bumps hills my cars makes a squeeking noise like it's rusted or something...

Can someone help me pinpoint what is wrong?

Thank you

Pic of thing that is sloped like a hill, which means it's probably a hill.

To be honest, you kinda need to diagnose this yourself. Your car makes a noise, but we cant tel you what it is without hearing or seeing it.

Have a friend stand outside the car when it does this and try to pinpoint where on the car it is

hhahhahaha..... Good stuff...



Paul, its probably just the bind your putting your suspension on. Keep in mind your car probably hasn't been on that much of a bind since you tried to drift through the bus stop shelter and ended up parking it on top the park bench.

What I do in this situation is dismantle the whole suspension, hit it with some rustoleum and the reinstall everything to make sure all is there and good. Don't forget to shower is with wd40 to make sure everything is lubricated.

Just find a big diesel fuel spill and drive through it. It will no doubt lube the underside of your car.
