little sqeak in my sti - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

reeksti · 03-02-2006, 12:53 AM

i've noticed that there is a sqeak in my sti, nothing serious but where the back window and the top roof panel meet, but inside the car, there some kind of a sqeak, and its really bothering me, i wanted to know if other sti owners are noticing that??

its probably some chasis flexing. mine totally does it too....but its 10 years old.

My friend you are driving an 06. You did not pay all that money to not take it in for a warranty claim. You could bring it to your favorite subaru dealership and they would be glad to work on it for free...

D Money · 03-02-2006, 12:59 AM

Ok, I changed my mind, it looks like you have tint on your windows. I would say thats the reason, sometimes ppl with tint have that problem.

teh DIRT · 03-02-2006, 01:04 AM

why would tint do that?

reeksti · 03-02-2006, 01:11 AM

for ppl in jersey, since having the front windows tinted is illegal

i had some in my headlinter.. just put some insulation up there.. it is silent now. easy fix.

bluengoldsti · 03-02-2006, 10:13 AM

just one squeak, consider yourself lucky.

joe tom · 03-02-2006, 10:16 AM

my drivers side front window squeals when i put it up or down in the rain. i hate it, its probably tint related.

MuddyREX · 03-02-2006, 11:11 AM

My windows squeak. My seatbelt squeaks. My passenger seat squeaks. My dashboard rattles. My rear suspension knocks. My exhaust hangers are squeaking. My exhaust throbs. My intake swishes. My blow off valve pfffffssshhhh's.

My car has personality.

wrxman60 · 03-02-2006, 12:01 PM

hahah i def agree with MuddyRex

S4toSTI · 03-02-2006, 12:15 PM

Come sit in my car it rattles everywhere.

JoeScooby · 03-02-2006, 12:21 PM

I had the squeek in the front driver window of my 04 by the a-piller. LOL I rubbed some chapstick inside the rubber and it went away

97TurboDSM · 03-02-2006, 01:01 PM

i dont believe that anyones car rattles more than my vert. its soo annoying but in the summertime its def worth it.

bluengoldsti · 03-02-2006, 01:13 PM

i definitely agree with that. my spyder made so many noises, i think i went deaf for awhile from turning the radio up.

hystericfox · 03-02-2006, 01:30 PM

Just one? I wish I could locate one in my Jeep. There are so many it blends together. When I hit bumps at the right angle and speed it makes a beautiful cacophony of banging, squeaking, rattling, knocking, pinging, and swearing.

Buster · 03-02-2006, 05:32 PM

My headliner does it also, i hate it. If I put my hand on it while driving it goes away. P.S. my pipes rattle on everything below.
