squeaking problem

88 300e.
when you turn the wheels running or not or when you sit in it, there is a sqeaky noise almost like the lower control arm bushing needs to be lubed.
anything other things like that that any of you have had?
and if i did have to lube it how hard would it be?

Hi Eric! It could be anything. Crawl under the car (carefully) and have someone turn the wheel back and forth while you look for the noise. I don't think anything is under there is greasable so not much you can do about it. It may go away on its own. If not, drive it until it becomes a problem. I'm sure your car has or will have much more serious issues than that! If not, count yourself extremely fortunate (and go but a lottery ticket).

Note: This thread is here like 4 times. It doesn't matter to me but some aren't so friendly and they will eat you alive. I'm not sure if bumping is against the rules but that would probably be preferable to multiple thread posting.
