Hi,
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced the front upper ball joints creaking on Au falcons?? How f**k annoying is it. The car has less than 40K so I don't think they're shot, I've checked the bolts and they seem to be torqued right. I think I read somewhere that here that the Ford service mob turned the ball joint and reconnected to get rid of the problem. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

the grease ford used in AU Top Balljoints wasnt the best grease in the world. and is starting to lose its effect now... take it to a ford dealer and get them to re-grease the top balljoints and it should all be sweet

Au's I have driven......and there have been lots of them, all creek and groan from the ball joints. These are cars that have all done less then 40k and were under 6 months old at the time!
They are just peices of s*^t. A re-grease should see them right tho, using some decent grease!
