Terrible noise
Terrible noise
The last two weeks i have an terrible annoying noise from left front of my is200, Its lowered with an KW v3 and i tried everything to get rid of it.. I disassembled the coilover and greased it in, I greased all of the bushings but after 2kms the noise just comes back. Now i think that its the steering rack thats broken? Anyone else had a problem like this? I have recorded the noise with my phone, Its a really squeeking, cracking noise. When i turn my steering wheels it almost makes me cry :p If you know what i mean.. and also when the car goes up and down.. This noise REALLY DOESN'T fit a lexus!
Please help!!

Hope this is a break trough :p I've put the lex on a bridge in the workshop to check everything again and when i pulled on my front left wheel i could move it up and down for 0.5 cm.. Conclusion -> "King pin" ? broken, so i ordered a set, left and right as the right one was starting to move also.. Hope this fixes the noise
