Honda Civic Lx 03 suspension and all around issues
Hi everybody
Im very new at this so im sorry if some of my questions are a bit dumb!and if my english is kind of rough.
First of all i live in central america..and i bought a civic in the states and brought it here.the car was brought here with a crash on the left back side of the car.i got it fix and it looks awsome..but since that it has a sweaking sound in that side and it gets louder when the car hits a stomp...or bump...and it continues when the car is running...and also my driver door and right back passenger door sounds like it isnt closed right and has a squeaking sound also..and it sounds awful..even with the music u can hear it.i took it to a shop here and they want to charge me 12.000 lemps(630 US$)and thats only for the suspension noise.
so i would like your opinions on the subject and what do you recomend i do..i also have other issues with the car but ill put them later here.
thank you very much
Roy

if it is actually suspension noise, it could be several things including the spring rubbing, blown shock, even a sway bar bushing that needs lube. for the doors, there are rubber stoppers in the door that can be turned so that the door can close tighter or looser.

thanks a lot gearbox..ill go right now and do that rubber stopper thing..and ill let you know how it went...when i took it to the shop they said that it might be the bushings on the side that the car was crashes because when it was crashed it almost took the entire trunk of the car and they had to rebuild it entirely and i think they used cheap and used stuff on it...so that trunk is an entire rattle noise...and when they gave me the price i thought it was a bit to expensive so that why i asked...what do u think of the price by the way? again im sory if my questions are a bit dumb...i just want my car to be and handle great with a very tight budget that i have.
thank you very much gearbox

depends how much work needs to be done but prolly looking at $200-300 range. i dont think it should be that expensive.
