Is this the old suspension, i hear it over bumps and shifting? shocks, struts, springs?

 

or the hatch. Drive it around with a buddy and have to him listen around for where its coming from.

 

pretty darn sure it's not the hatch, makes a creeking squeaking noise

 

swaybar has dirt between it and the rubber in the clamps.

 

mine is squeaky when you are stoping but when you are
going slow coming to a stop and it from the back and the other squeak is when you go over speed bumps but that might be the struts or springs do you what that might be

 

I have had that same problem for a long time - I noticed that the noise was not present when the car was cold and then later when it warmed up the squeeking started. I lubed everything underneath the car, and changed the rear struts with no success. In changing the rear struts I noticed that the upper spring bushing was dried out and worn - I am going to lube this bushing - I'm hoping that it is what is making the noise - try it and let me know if this helps you!

 

I have the same problem on my 91 convertable, quiet when cold, squeeky when hot.... I'm going to try putting it up on jacks tonight and see if something is rubbing. (maybe expanded metal when hot?)

 

Mine had the same symptoms, and I put on new exhaust "donut" rubber hangers on the mufflers. Fixed it right up.

 

Same with me.

It could be the short small stuby sublink. I believe that may be the problem.

where can you get some of those "rubber donuts"?

 

Do you mean the bushings? I assume you mean to take it apart and clean then re-grease it?

 

ok...this will sound really stupid but what does fc mean?

 

I also have a similar squeak that I hear primarily when I shut the car off and the engine is still wiggling for that last millisecond. I think it may be like a rusty motor mount or something. My car is nearing the 170k mark and probably a lot of the bushings/mounts are giving out.

 

FC is second gen for short.

 

how do you get second gen out of FC?

 

FCS3 is the first 4 character of the 2nd gen vin #

 

i have been having the same problem with the rear squeaking but it occurs when my car is cold. later when i've driven the car for a while, it no longer squeaks. and this squeak occurs at low speeds, like when you slowing down and crawling over a speed bump.
