Default Soooo...I have this ANNOYING Creeeek

In the front drivers side suspension... Like when i go over something , Or taking off and coming to a stop. Or even getting out of the car ha.. Basically anytime the suspension travels. Its so damn annoying, Really makes me feel like im driven a beat up mustang or something lol.

Only does it when it warms up or ive been driving for more than 5-10 mins..

When i had the car lowered it didnt do it as much if any, but now im stock height . Think its something in the front Arms ?? bad bushings ?... your thoughts guys ..

I think you should jack up the car, take the wheel off and look around.

spray some WD-40 on the bushings one at a time until the creaking stops. then take a good look at that bushing and replace it if it looks like it needs it. if the bushing looks ok, then grease it with some white lithium grease to keep it from squeaking as long as possible.
