HELP ! My 996TT is sounding like a DONKEY !!! Squeaking front Suspension....

So I had PSS10s done on my car and now 3 months later, the front end is squeaking away like a crappy bed in a rundown hotel...( not that I would know ). Its pretty loud and sounds like a donkey. eee errr eee errr!!!!

Makes the noise when I push down on the front end, over bumps, and while steering.

Any thoughts???? Ball Joints??? Are there upgrades for these??

Cheers,

Al

Noise

Could be the ball joints in the front or the sway bar end link bushings. The ball joints get replaced as a complete unit so that would be a good replacment, and as far as upgrade then the gt3 front control arms would be good due to being fully adjustable(caster).. The sway bar end links are a complete unit as well, but the sound you are describing sounds like a noisy front control arm..GL..
