Title: Is my car just an old man or something?
Post by: Secret Chimp on March 10, 2007, 02:15:14 PM
For the past few months of colder weather, my car's front end liked to make little "herka-herka" creaking noises when I went over low-speed bumps like driveways, speed bumps, etc. Today has stayed above 45 all day now, though, and my car is completely silent. Are my bushings actually 100% bad, or is the lube inside of the sealed ones just grumpy about cold weather now?
Also, PVC pipe stub and cone filter intake - yes or no?  :P

Sounds like your sway bar bushings,

and PCV intakes are ghetto. :lol:  But for the fun of it...you might as well! :ohyeah:

If you you're going to make a PVC intake, be sure to cut a hole in the hood so you can stick the filter out of it. It will be a custom "shaker" hood.   :rockon: :lol:
