i hear an annoying sound from the rear shocks (from the top, both sides) when i hit light bumps (like rubber pieces squealing), most of the time when its cold outside. I replaced all shocks with kyb gr2s 2 years ago and the problem appeared 1 year ago and its getting worse. I had the strut mounts replaced too (KYB) at that time. I went to the dealer and they told me it was the top plates (is it the same thing as strut mounts?) Anyone has an idea of what could be the problem?

yea, i have the kyb mounts, mine still squeeks..i think its actually a combination of things in my case....the kyb mounts were put in by a local mechanic for me,...the rear mounts are only suposed to be tourqed to like 25ftlbs...they are MUCH tighter than that, and i think that kills the rubber or whatever is in there...and i think my swaybar links also clunk at certian angles..
600?!?!?!? thats RAPE!! lol
