I can't think of anything to lube but the sway bars. I think everything else is sealed for life, or until replacement.

My Noise Is All The Time...not In The Brakes...but However I Did Have The Rattle In The Brakes As Well...all It Is , Is The Pad Is Moving Aroung When You Hit A Bump...i Put New Pads In And It Was Corrected...sounds Like A High Pitch Tinny Rattle...i Think You Can Bend The Tabs As Well To Correct It...mine Is Definitely Suspension...

I have the same problem. Someone had posted about changing the struts but to my knowledge never said if it fixed the problem. It is my guess that the struts need to be other than Mopar. Any thoughts?

I only have 2,200 miles and have the same noise. Sounds like the struts are loose. I had heard that guys that replaced their struts took care of the problem.

Incidently, I purchased a new Charger sxt ' 3 weeks ago and it is solid as a rock up front....it'll be interesting how the dealer handles it...

Im having the same problem with mine, car drives fine and handles fine for the most part, but when i hit small bumps, potholes etc. I get this rattling sound like all of you that sounds like the struts are loose or the mounts are bad. I planned on replacing the struts and the mounts.

Has anyone had a clear solution yet?

How much can you get struts and mounts for? I heard KYB offers them now? Any idea on price ? Do I have to order direct from KYB?
