I just replaced my spoiler bearing with a sealed one courtesy of Viper Bob (he sent it to me for free
) and instructions at p-car. However, I still have a serious noise as the spoiler is lowered, notably near the end of it's travel. The movement up is pretty quite though. Any ideas?
Thanks

I replaced my bearing last week and it cured mine - it was like a grinder before. What was your bearing like - was it totally shot?
The only additional thing I did on mine was to lubricate the cable and re grease the rack gears but assume you would have done this as well.

I am mechanically challenged. Where specifically do you lub the cable - at the motor and/or withn the drive gear where it connects to the worm shaft. Also, why lube the cabel? How does it cause noise?

Mark,
Got'em... despite'em, I have very precise hearing as to other noises going on. It's bugging me, damn it.
