Hi Paul
 
I remember running across this problem on a YC, I just don't remember
clearly how I solved it. I am thinking it was simply loose screws. I
think it was the part of the flange that screwed to the tray, the screws
were slightly loose and that was causing the noise. If you can't reach
those with an offset screwdriver then of course you must remove all the
dampers and take the tray assembly out to tighten things up.

A Young Chang G175 has a squeak in the damper tray.  All the moving
parts of the sustain feature in the piano were eliminated until the
tray.  Before disassembly, I thought I'd seek the wisdom of the list to
learn if anyone has encountered this problem, and what was done to solve
it.  It sure sounds like the groaning squeak you hear from tight cloth
bushings against a metal pin.
