I finally think I have found the issue. http://www.alldata.com/TSB/42/064230ae.html must be a member I guess
Service bulletin dated 05-117 DEC 05 States that the clips on the leaf spring need a certain type of grease with molycote 7. You would think that if this is dated in 2005, a 2006 would have come with it applied already.
Went and purchased a tube from local autoparts store for under 5.00 and followed a guide found on another website to understand what all needed to be done so I could lubricate the parts properly.
I only did this, this morning but already everything is much quieter. I will give it a week for the new grease to get into where it needs to be via normal driving.
But the NOISE IS GONE!!!! |
