Squeaks and Rattles




Squeaks and Rattles

Important:
Squeaks and rattles are caused by incorrect control of relative motion between vehicle components. There are 4 ways to prevent squeaks and rattles.


* Attach the component that squeaks or rattles securely.

* Separate the components that squeak or rattle to prevent contact.

* Insulate the components that squeak or rattle.

* Insulate low uniform friction surfaces to eliminate stick and slip motion.
