Hey all ...

Ever since the weather has gotten so stinking hot, my '99 SS has started making a really bad (and very loud) creaking sound from the front-left suspension. From what I can tell, it doesn't appear to be the shock, and I keep thinking it might be the front suspension bushings. My car is stock.

Just wondering if anyone else has had problems with their SS making bad noises as the outside temp has gone up. I can take it to the dealer, but I'd just assume handle it myself.

Any ideas are appreciated.

No problems here ... just the fans kick on a little more often ...

I think a trip to the dealer is in order.
