[QUOTE="shiroitenshi, post: 3232562, member: 27518"] If cannot hear, cannot know lah. since you're not even sure where the sound come from.. what to do? If it's so hard, try push the car, and listen to squeaks. if got, it's likely to be the something that's [B]not engine related[/B] making the squeak (obviously this is not a one-two men job) usually need maybe 3 peple.. 2 people push car, one guy go and listen (or two only if one is very strong). (It needs to get to a decent speed so notice that this also takes up a lot of space, so depends on your mech's working area. You can also start the car and drive around slowly while the guy runs along outside listen to the differnt parts, but if you're using a loud exhaust, maybe it's better to push.. :biggrin: But I choose pushing because I want to eliminate noice from engine. so if only the knuckles or whatever noise appears, I won't confuse with engine sound. Cannot find the noise and suspect it's the engine? or suspect the sound can only be heard when driving a little faster? then take out four wheels and put on jack stands. start engine and let it coast on 1-2nd gear like when doing brake skimming. listen to squeaks. (this is to test the brakes to see if they are rubbing or not, but this is not a 100 % test because there is NO LOAD on the bearings. But this is also the part where you check i[B]f the sound is coming from engine, as you can rev it to the RPM where the sound occurs. You can also mount tires or or not remove them, but removing the tires reduces the load so you can identfy the sound better, and you can put your ear nearer to the fender without risking rubbing your face on a TE37 or a CE28 :burnout: Ha ha. But either way, usually this does the trick. If you need to simulate load on one of the wheels, just use a jack to jact up the lower arm a bit. you can do this one at a time. [/B] If you have the 2 post lift, it's easier as you don't need to use the jackstand.. but remember not to overzealously rev the car.. 2 post lift is less stable than a 4 post lift. In my case, I have access to a 4 post lift only, so have to use jackstands. Usually either of this methods will narrow down the problem and locate.. Usually I don't need to go so far and do all of them, because the sound usually gives enough clues to skip either one. If after that still cannot locate.. I think probably suspension, or you should look for someone with better hearing ability. :P Good luck [/QUOTE]
