Hi all,

I have a '95 LS400 and for the past few months I have noticed this grinding noise coming from the right front part of the car. Whenever I make a left turn, it makes this noise, then once I pick up speed I don't notice it. I've looked around alot on the board and I think it may be the right front bushing that just needs to be lubricated. Does anyone know how to go about doing this ? Also, what kind of lubricant would I use ?
Any input would be appreciated !

Thanks

 

doesn't sound like a bushing, I don't think they get lubricated, just replaced. A bushing goes bad and you get a clunk. Grinding probably means a tie rod end.

 

Bushings are not meant to be lubricated. If they start to make grinding or squeeking noisee, then it's time to replace them. Unfortunattely, most of them can only be replaced with the parts that carry them, meaning control arms and such.
