    What happens if you slowly run just the right front wheel up a slope such as a driveway? Can you hear the squeak or groan as the front suspension twists?

    Well, I tried with opened & closed windows. Driving slowly up the driveway with windows closed I thought I heard a very faint noise. With windows down there was a fair bit of engine noise and driving up at crawling speed I couldn't really hear the (any) noise. Driving at 60k over even smallest road undulations produces the squeaky rubbery noises.
