Squeeking sound when going over bumps
The sound just started recently and is is coming from the front. I think it might be only the front right. Whenever I go over a speed bump it does it or any time the car bounces up and down in the front. Any ideas?

The squeek is from rubber suspension parts. It comes on with the colder weather and if you wait long enough, say until spring, it will probably go away and not come back until next winter. If you can't stand it, lube it.

i had a squeak last winter...had to have my bearing and hub assembly replaced...have a squeak this year...had to get a bracket replaced as it seems that one of 2 things happened. 1 i hit something or 2. when i went over a speed bump ( car is lowered ) that before my front left tire hit the speed bump the bump actually pushed on the front left bracket infront of the radiator and bent it and loosened the bolts attached to my frame front end...Car in shop for 3 days now...$320 later in parts...
but noise is fixed now!
