    Despite the number of disputes on the Internet, the majority of car manufacturers recommend lubricating rubber and polyurethane bushings. This increases their service life and prevents knocking when driving a car. It’s essential to choose the right lubricant and apply it properly. The silicone-based grease suits best in this case. The procedure is rather simple, so you can do it yourself (source: without specialists).
