Mine makes groaning noises when you get out and the suspension adjusts itself.Same thing?
Hi All
The rear suspension on my 2002 TD-6 has started squeaking loud,even on flat surfaces.
Anyone have any suggestions ?
Cheers Paul
Mine makes groaning noises when you get out and the suspension adjusts itself.Same thing?
Sounds like some worn bushes? Mine makes some strange noises like that when I drop the suspension to let the short legged people out. I don't hear it while driving though.
How many KM on it?
If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
Yes I get the groaning sounds too when I get out. Its done 208,000 with full service history.
The front bushes all need replacing, so maybe the rear ones are knackered too........
What are the shocks like? just read a thread on RRnet about this.
L322 3.6TDv8 Lux
The shocks are good, and the ride is still great...just squeaky......

My 2004 L322 has just recently started squeaking quite badly at the rear. It is quite embarrassing when I go over speed bumps as I go through shopping centre carparks.
I need to get the car onto a hoist to see if I can locate, with my stethoscope, the exact location of the noise.
Harlie, I don't suppose you know where on RRNET that you saw the thread? Off to search......
Found this (one of many) - see post no. 15 by Haylands. I'll check it. rear suspension squeak (please advice) tia

I thought I had mine licked when I found the two bolts holding the mounting bracket for R/H rear caliper were a bit loose.
Cleaned everything and re-assembled using some brake pad grease on points which might squeak there and what do you know.
The noise went away. Now about 10 days later it is back again.
I will check it again and see what I can find this time.
Rear suspension bushings all look good at 178,000 km.
I wrongly reported that the outer rear bushings (or as Land Rover call them: "Ball Joints" were OK.
Well in fact they are not so I will change them.
I have the tool set for removing/replacing the lower ones but not for the Top so when I get that I will get onto the job.
At this stage I am not planning on replacing inner bushings.
Has anyone found that they have been damaged?
At this time they look OK at 178,000 km but then again I have been wrong before!
The upper ones on mine look OK. I tried injecting grease but it made no difference.
I really need to get it onto a hoist to hunt down the source of the squeak.
