Page 117
Situation:
A 'creak' or 'knock' noise may be heard from the front or rear suspension when performing lowspeed maneuvers and passing over speed
bumps or on rough roads. This noise may be due to the spring creaking against the spring edge
Action:
In the event of a customer concern of the above, refer to the Repair Procedure outlined below to install antifriction tape to the springs.
PARTS
TOOLS:
Refer to Workshop Manual (GTR) for any required special tools
WARRANTY:
NOTE:
Always check DDW to verify that the vehicle has not had the repairs performed as part of UPS46092B. Repair procedures are under
constant review and therefore times are subject to change; those quoted here must be taken as guidance only. Always refer to DDW to
obtain the latest repair time.
DDW requires the use of causal part numbers. Labor only claims must show the causal part number with a quantity of zero.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
APPLY ANTIFRICTION TAPE TO FRONT SPRINGS
NOTE:
Global Technical Reference (GTR) lookup sequence is as follows: GTR Home > NAS > Model > Service Information > 2010 > Workshop
Manual
NOTE:
Do not discard the nuts and bolts; in this instance only, the nuts and bolts may be reused on installation as long as they are tightened to
the specified torque values.
1. Refer to Workshop Manual (GTR) section 20401 and remove the leftfront shock absorber.

2. Remove the precut antifriction tape from the protective backing. (Figure 1)
CAUTION:
Ensure there is no grease / oil on the coil springs.
3. Place the antifriction tape onto the first coil (top) of the spring, aligning the tape to where the coil spring ends. (Figure 2)
4. Ensure the tape is securely pressed onto the spring. (Figure 3)
5. Refer to Workshop Manual (GTR) section 20401 and install the leftfront shock absorber.
