    Poly bushings seem to eventually squeak, especially if you have eccentrics.

    I was up above it, Now I'm down in it ~ Entropy - A Build thread.

        if the correct (petroleum free) grease is installed, they should almost never squeak. my AKG bushings started about to make noises a year or so into the install, but the car is such a pile of shit, i don't even care anymore. if it was something i cared about, i'd be pissed.

        m3 has had Powerflex installed for almost 4 years now - no noises of any kind. YMMV

          I’ve also seen the PTFE tape trick, has anybody had any experience with that?
