How do I make it stop? I brought one a few weeks ago and have only used it a couple of times and already one of the front wheels squeak. I brought it from an online shop so dont really wanna go through the process of sending it back etc over a squeaky wheel, but its annoying me.
Any suggestions welcome :flower:
 
Thanks, I did immediatly think of this but when I looked on the internet it said not to use anything with oil or grease, does WD40 have oil in it? :flower:
 
i was told by my local pram shop to use furniture polish it has silicone in it n will stop the squeak without being overly greasey:thumbup:
it works too ive tried it n it smells nice:haha:
 
I also use furniture polish. Someone suggested it here earlier & it worked.
 
Also google your buggy type and the problem - it may be specific to that type of buggy and easy to rectify. (I have a zia with a clicky wheel but its a well known issue and is VERY simple to fix... must do it! it has a bit about it in the instructions). Good to know the furniture polish tip.

I'm not sure but I used it on my kids' old pushchair and my mum used to do it and it was fine; WD40 is a lubricant made out of petroleum byproducts. The furniture polish trick sounds good also just make sure you don't get it on the tyre bit of the wheels because if it contains silicone I'd imagine it may make them a bit 'skiddy' xx
