  1. Hello, I've got a 2006 2.7d S Type Sport, it's covered 70,000 Miles and it has recently developed a very annoying squeak from the rear suspension. After reading several forums online, I decided that it was most likely the drop links. So, I went out and bought a set, fitted them tonight and no joy. Still getting the squeak.. I also tried while the rear wheels were off, soaking all bushes I could find in two tins of silicone spray! Once again, no joy. Granted, the drop links were shot. So I'm glad I've replaced them. I don't however have any idea what to do next! The amount of parts on each side that could be squeaking is ridiculous!!! About the squeak; it's very high pitched. It's constant when driving along.. The smallest ripple in the road and it screeches! It sounds like an old bed. It sounds when pushing on the rear quarter. It sounds on getting in and out. It even sounds on putting it in gear as it creeps forward (auto).. As previously mentioned, I've drowned all bushes in silicone spray, no joy. I've put on brand new drop links, no joy. The track rod bushes seem worn, but not massively so. What shall I try next?! Any Jaguar Techs on here with the knowledge? Or any common faults I've missed? I know the drop links are the most common.. Any replies greatly appreciated. Cheers in advance, Tom
