C-3 exhaust squeek

[jack bogosian]

I hear a squeek when I hit small bumps,, I noticed the right side exhaust is very close to the bracket that houses the break line for the emergency break cable ... Even during normal driving conditions I hear a squeek from under the right side of the car.. Has any had this problem and how can I fix it thanks in advance you guys are great...Jack

Re: C-3 exhaust squeek

I had an identical squeak on mine and I was certain it was coming from the right front side PO2 hubcap. A passenger said it was coming from the right rear and I, too, suspected the squeaking was the exhaust pipe/leaf spring rubbing. Wrong again. The two forward suspension bolts holding the tire tub were not tightened and when I hit bumps it would squeak. That may be another source of the problem worth looking into.
