Squeak in front left suspension 200 90

posted by  someone claiming to be Halsey Rodman on  Sun Nov 26 19:56 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Dear Fellow Volvo Owners,

My Volvo recently developed a nasty squeak in the front left suspension which my mechanic diagnosed as a bad front left tie rod end (It was bad, too, all torn up and full of grime) which he replaced after suggesting that I ought to have my alignment done sometime soon. After he replaced the tie rod end the squeak disappeared completely for a couple of weeks until I went to a Goodyear garage to get new tires and to have the alignment done. A couple of days after the new tires were on and the alignment was aligned the squeak came back with a vengance. It only squeaks when I am going over bumps and especially when there are one or more passengers in the car (or when I bounce the front end up and down to see if it is still squeaking). Is there another joint that could be faulty, or is it something I can lubricate without replacing??

I would greatly appreciate any advice anyone might have.
