Thumbs up If your car squeeks on turns... or speed bumps

The lesson I learned... Check your panhard rod. I put poly bushings in mine a year ago and lo and behold they needed lubbing up. Dammit. I changed shocks, visually inspected everything, lubed my endlinks, rear swaybar bushings, and my rattling problem in the back just kept getting worse. I was embarrased to drive people around and didn't want to cave in and pay 900 bucks for a mechanic to fix it.

Anyway, I'm thrilled to figure this out... I forgot the cardinal sin of Poly, it needs to be lubed occasionally and if you experience noise going side to side in the car, it can be the panhard...
