Need HELP Identifying A Noise

Hi all,

When I go over a speed bump I get a squeeking noise from the front right area of the car. Visually I can't see anything and was wondering what might be making the noise. Shocks were replaced about 2 years ago with Bilstein's. Everything else is stock regarding suspensions items. Car is almost 4 years old.

Thanks for any help.

Matt
:cheers:

I believe the sway bar bushings have a lining that makes contact with the bar that should not be lubricated as it could make the problem worse (although more an annoyance than a problem).

Check the bolts around the bushings and suspension points for proper tightness. The may have loosened up and be responsible for the noise.
