Installed ES busings and they make lots of noise..what to do?

I ordered the black LCA bushings and had my mechanic at nissan put them in..a month later they are making lots of noise when the car moves up and down on the suspension..what do I do to fix this or do i go back to stock? Thanks..

oh one thought was putting more grease on them?

They are supposed to be installed with silicone grease and should not be loud already. You can use spray silicone or tear them down and grease them.

which bushing did you have installed? Mine have been on for over 2 years now and don't squeak at all.

You might have to put more grease on them. Also, when they are installed, make sure that it is not overtightened. Torque them to spec.
