Suspension Leg Squeek !
Hi all I have just put a refurbished leg on my Cavalier and I have noticed a little squeak now as I'm going along the road. I think the noise is coming from where the rubber on the very top of the suspension leg contact the top of the bodywork. Should this have a little lube in there ?? Many Thanks ...
