TSB 03-20-2: Suspension Creaking

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This applies to all Foci produced from 2000 to 2003. I'll assume it's also a *possible* issue on SVT models:


SUSPENSION - Creaking, crunching, grinding or rattle noise from front suspension at slow speeds over bumps and/or while turning

NOISE - Creaking, crunching, grinding or rattle noise from front suspension at slow speeds over bumps and/or while turning

- The TSB has been updated since...with the elimination of the strut bearing as the cause. Still, it's a possible idea.

As for when to repair, just do it when you do the new suspension install. I just recently replaced my end links when the suspension was "renewed".
