Squeeky suspension E36????

[Johny14586]

The rear has developed a squeek its even louder after it rains but once it gets dry it gets quieter. I have JOM coilovers fitted for the last year and a half could it be a fault with them.???

Try tightening the bolts in the boot on struts to correct torque at the rear mounts.
Are your tyres fowling anything?
are springs correct way up?
Could it be an exhaust noise?
You need to jack it up and have a gawk could be loads of things.

If something rubbing look for shiny or suspiciously clean.
My Joms make no noise at all

anti roll bar bushes?
rear upper ball joint can also do squicking.
try to inject in it a bit of light oil, see does it help.
other bushes also could be your problem.
only real way is to get under with a bar and see your self as this would be only guessing

Dunno if its the same issue or not but my friend had JOM's in his car and after about 3 months one of the coilovers started to squeak. He would spray oil around the seal on the damper and it would solve it for a day or two. He reckons the salt got at them (he fitted them in winter). Annoying when the car was perfect before spending money on it....

Try silicone spray instead of oil. Oil eats rubber. Check arb drop links and rear bushings for movement. If your suspension strut top mount nuts come loose use loctite thread lock on them before tightening to correct torque.
