Hello Caddy Owners and Lovers:

 

[Jonny5]

Whoops, um.... When i press on the back end of my car on the drivers side, car off, with no keys in it, i get a squeek comming from the wheel well. It soulds like a bad mattress that people are "gettin buisy" on. How can I fix this squeek. Thanks in advance. P.S. Im new to greasing fitting and what not. THanks

I got exact same thing. I guess we should change bushings.

Mine just recently started doing the same thing with the passenger side... Isn't there a rubber padding in between the spring and the upper contact area? If there is I would suspect that became worn out, allowing metal to metal contact... Whoops, gah, I'm late for class...

Like I understood this rear suspension bushing is in a support forward arm. I'm not sure if I can remove it without special tools.

Any Word On What The Problem Was??? My Car Just Started Doing The Exact Same Thing Yesterday...

Wow I'm amazed at how close I was. After inspecting the spring, I found that yes there is rubber padding in between the spring and the frame. On mine it wasn't worn out at all, in fact it was in perfectly good condition. What happened was the rubber somehow shifted about 1/4th of an inch and that was allowing the spring to contact the frame.

So, does anybody know the correct procedure to remove the spring so that I can re-seat the rubber pad?
