Hi All I'm a new member just joined yesterday. I have an 850 T5 which I have recently started upgarding. First on the list was a set of polyeurethane (sp) front suspension bushes from powerflex. They have improved the steering feel and cornering of the car but they are a right pain because no matter what type of Lubricant I use (oil based grease, silicone and copper slip) they still squeek every time I go over a speed bump and quite frankly it's embarrising. :bricks: The copper slip seems to work best but does anyone else have this problem and if so how do i fix it without converting back to the standard bushes. All advice greatfully recieved. Cheers

Vaseline mate..oil based, will stay there forever..no more squeaks. When I was in the trade we had a spray on 'white grease' cant remember its name exactly (was a while ago) which worked a treat.
