    Hello There,

    I am just back from service and my f430 is squeaking like it never did on the front, passenger side. couldn't hear this from outside seems to be really more audible from inside front right while turning, on bumps, etc. still hearing this after 40 mins of driving.

    I did an accumulator change, f1 fluid bleeding, a few other checkups and mechanics went for road tests so I hope they didn't hit potholes without checking,

    which kind of things could cause such noise ?
    car was probably washed with pressure washer 2 days ago , dry suspensions or car steering axle ?
    I don't have a lift so I can't really check unfortunately .

    thanks...

    My guess is the suspension needs lubed.

    Good, now wash off the WD40 and apply a 100% silicon spray lube, because regular WD40 will ruin the rubber.

    Jack the front wheel up and see if any slack in the system. Grab the wheel at 3+9 o clock + 6+12 o clock, see if any movement.
