MY 95 C4 HAS A SQUEAK IN LEFT REAR, WHEN I TURN OR GO AROUND A CURVE IT GETS LOUD. THE BEARING IS GOOD AND SO ARE THE BREAK PADS. ITS A SOUND LIKE A SQUEAKY BED. HAS ANY ONE HAD THIS PROBLEM?

Check the inside of your rims to see if they are making conatct with any frame or suspension parts. Are they the stock wheels?

Ya might look at where your suspension is mounted. Check all your bolts and look for any signs of movement. Does it do the "sweek" when you push up and down on a rear corner with your hands? Rock 'er side to side too. Any noise?

Dec. 17. Last year. This year too!

And this way, I can justify buyin' toys whenever I want!

Good thing I didn't hatch on Feb 29, huh? One toy every 4 years? YIKES!.

Unless it was dog-years. What's THAT formula? I think octane ratin' is easier than that - R + M / 2
