ehhh crap.. i need to change my tbelt and stuff and now this..

 

Well go have it inspected by the dealer. It may cost you nothing.

 

True... but with the price of labour... if one is bad, makes sense to do them all.

 

If the car is certified, take it back to the dealer and say "control arms are squeeking",

If they give you some BS about this being normal (which it isn't) ask to take a new B7 for a test drive.

Expect to take several trips back and forth to the dealer, as they will want to cheap out and try to replace as few arms as possible, and they usually pick the wrong ones.

 

ive seen whole control arm kits on ebay for like 350 would that be right for all of it? seems low.

 

I have the same problem.

I highlighted this to the dealer and they charged me $100 to do some BS adjustments for nothing.
The sound is still there. I took it back 3 times and I have given up.

 

A lot of those kits on eBay are made in china. Get the entire kit made by Myele in Germany including the upgraded tie rod ends and the instillation hardware.

Should run about 470 on eBay or a bit higher at ECS.

The Squeeking is not a safety issue, but it is annoying. Basically the bushings have dried out a bit. Clunks when you go over speed bumps are another issue.

 

could be shocks/struts. push down on the car on the corner u think the sound is coming from. like hard, pump it up and down like 4-5 times then let go. if u let go and it stops moving right away, ur good, if u let go and u notice the car is kinda jiggling for a few secs or so, could be ur problem right there
