    tell me about the squeaking of urethane

    i'm running urethane green subframe bushings and urethane black rear trailing arms from AKG seems the same as IE. I'm getting a lot of noise transmitted into the cabin that is very bothersome. I don't hear "squeaking" but more of a creeking sound. Is this to be expected. I don't think my mech lubed them before install. Also can this be driveshaft noise....I'm thinking of replacing mine soon....

    the squeaking is to be expected but if its really that bad, your mechanic probably either used very little lube or none at all

      Pull them out and lube them.

      Major PITA, in most cases.

        Shouldn't be squeaking unless they weren't lubed. Find a mechanic with three functional brain cells.
