squeaky front end

Just notices that my suspension at the front is starting to squeak a little when going over bumby ground at speed... I'm thinking it might be the shocks but wondered if there were any servicable parts on the suspension with nipples Very Happy that i could give a good greasing Thumbs Up ???

Anyone else suffered from squeakyness ?

If you don't hear the squeak inside the car and only hear it when the windows are open, then could be the shocks. But they aren't malfunctioning, it's just the way they work and sound at work. Laughing
I hear them too, many times, when go off-roading.

I suspect that'll be it then - I've taken to having the windows open recently nd can only hear it outside of the car when they are open! All is still quiet in the car with them shut - phew Thumbs Up

My suspension has squeaked from day one (Front and back). Took it in and they greased everything. Got home..still squeaked.

1st service last month.. re-greased...still squeaks.

Funny thing though: It only squeaks when it is cool or cold, not when it's warm.
