1999 Corolla Squeaks when turning rightbelgichocolate 09-14-2004, 03:04 PM Just acquired vehicle with 119,000 miles. At crawling speeds when turning to the right, or backing-up to the right, a low pitch squeak like a heavy door hinge. No noticable noise when turning at "faster" speeds. Also, when driving over speed bump/dip it also makes similar noise. Checked yotarepair.com site and they mentioned a common 1999 problem with the strut's upper bearing. Has anyone else experienced this? belgichocolate 10-14-2004, 05:31 PM The problem was the outer tie-rod. Unfortunately, the tie-rod ends are DEALER ONLY parts, ~ $150 for both inner and outer tie-rod ends. I found both on a website called buyautoparts.com and paid $57 including the shipping. Problem solved, no more squeak. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
