Does your suspension squeak??
I noticed today that the suspension on my RX330 makes a slight squeaking sound. Has anyone else experienced this? I thought I'd post the question and gain some knowledge before I take it to the mechanic. Any help is welcome.
Thanks

Typically it is bushing which squeals. Mechanic would lube the bushings with silicone based lubricant. Finding which bushing is making the noise is difficult, so one way out is to lube them all.

Bushings are all over, where ever there is a flex joint, the two metal pieces are coupled through a bushing encapsulated in rubber like material. The squeal comes when the metal bolt and the rubber rub against each other.
