Car has developmened a nasty squek, when I go over humps or rough surfaces.
Cars is also tramlining like a b*tch now.

Any ideas how I can do a suspension test without having to removethe wheels????
The shocks and springs on the car are Gaz.

Thanks

Have you had the steering rack replaced yet?.
Your post of 30th April suggested there was some problem with it

If you wind the dampers to full soft you shouuld be able to move each corner in turn relatively easily.. this will help you isolate which corner of the car the noise is coming from .. then concentrate your efforts in that area. Means you'll only have one wheel to remove
remember to set teh dampers back to original stiffness before driving off at any speed though
