Dont use a spray as sprays tend to be thin and will wear off quick try to find something close to packing grease so that the stuff sticks around for a while
    You are right.... that didn't fix it. I'm going back for the fifth time to get it checked out. Woohoo

    thats really odd that the dealer replaced the bar itself over just the bushings for the bar. If this is the case of the bushings being gone you will notice shrivled up peices of rubber at least small peices inside the bushing when removed from the bar. Like i said before you will need a rather thick grease to be put in there and you should be fine. Just make sure the grease you use will not react and swell up the rubber
