As the title states, in the rear rim/area there is very noticeable sqeauking when going over a bump or whenever the car makes any up and down movement, even if it is slight. Any one know what the deal may be? I have TRD springs and sway bar if that helps.

What I think may be wrong is that rim is slightly warped. Maybe cause the fact its warped is affecting the area, I have been meaning to replace it but havent gotten around, or had money for it. Cause this be the cause? I have been driving on the warped rim for about a month and a half. Heavy squeaking hasnt started til about 2-3 weeks ago.

 

Could be the rim.

But, what about a cold air intake?

I've gotten a whole range of squeaks from my Injen, and it varies fairly often. Occasionally, it sounds like my suspension isn't screwed down tight. I get all paranoid, make it home, take everything apart and... it's fine.

I would imagine that a warped rim would make much more noise during normal travel, and not just over bumps

 

I have a CAI but the sound is coming from the back, im sure of that. Yeah it does sound like my suspension is loose, I get what you mean lol, I was paranoid about the warped im too, but ive driven everywhere with it, 80+mph as well and its fine. Now that I hear a bunch of squeaks I think it may be taking a toll on the suspension.

I rather get a new rim/rims now than spend a fortune later when I have to fix my suspension and get new rims.

 

check your endlinks. and check your chassis bolts

 

my car squeaks especially here in NYC with all the bumps and cracks and potholes and sh*t but i have stock springs. my sound is actually coming from the trunk moving so damn much i need new shocks and need to stop that damn squeaking

 

I have had to spray down the swaybar, bushings, and endlinks with silicone grease every now and again.

Can't hurt.

 

Bump for more ideas.

 

Is there a mouse back there? :p

 

Haha ^ Well you never know.
