I have a 05 v with a ground control coilover system installed. When I drive it squeaks, you can really here it when backing up. Is anybody else experience this problem? Does anybody have a solution? |

Still squeeks.

My GC makes a creeking noise, not squeaking. Maybe I should start a new thread 
Damn Maggie makes a bunch of noise too, and hurts my neck everytime I hit the gas 
I also have this "wheel-jumping" thing going on everytime I do a burnout. What's up with that?!!
The worst thing about this car, is no matter how fast it try to get to where I'm going, it still burns a lot of gas.
