Creaking noise over speed bump
Every time I go over a speed bump slowly or take off & front lifts a little or get out of the car I hear a creak out of the front right. I tried to spray ( Lub ) all the components underneath but its still there.
Where is the problem?
Thanks

I have this same problem except it comes from the rear passenger side. Does it only do it when it's cold out? I heard it could be a bad bushing or something but I'm not completely sure about it...

Your springs sit on a piece of rubber because of the spring not having an even bottom. When you grease it when jacked up from the axle, it is sealed up so the grease cant get to where it needs to. Try jacking your car up from the frame so the rear has no pressure you can than take the bolts out of the shocks to drop the rear. Next take the springs out and grease where it sits in the rubber, where you could not originally reach. Try that from the video that what it sounds like it is. If you can get your hands on a lift, its 100000 times easier

I had a similar problem coming from both the front and rear of my car. I just put the car on a lift and unbolted the sway bars and put some grease between them and the rubber bushing. Bolted the bars back up and squeak has been nonexistent going on 5 months now. Only took like 30 minutes and a few ounces of grease. The hardest part was getting the drivers side front sway bar bracket unhooked because of having to work around all the plastic in an awkward way to reach one of the bolts. Nothing to bad though.
