Default Grease

Every time I get my oil changed the guy greases up the front end for me. And some how grease eventually finds its way onto the wheels after a few days.

well i guess not EVERY time, but I have him grease the bushings on the frontend. I apparently need to replace the one on the passenger side.
No he's a good guy. He wipes it up and everything, this usually happens several days later

When I first asked him to check them he said the passenger side wasn't taking any grease. Driver side is obviously leaking it out.
It had started getting squeky when I asked him to start greasing.

I'll try to get it in soon and just have new bushings put on

This happens alot if your ball joints actually get greased by the lube shop you use. Usually only noticed on wheels with large openings though. The grease boots have a small hole in them, for the old grease to come out after the new grease goes in. Even if he wipes it all down, after the suspension cycles while driving, more grease will come out.
