Doubt your suspension can make a squeaky noise. Check your rear brakes to make sure the brake pad indicators arent hitting your rotors.

My front started squeeking a few weeks ago, seems like the same kind of squeek, I dunno if its my tc rods, cuz they are shot. or if its my coils, cuz i think the coating on them wore off and they are just rubbing... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/eh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':eh:'> But I am guessing its my tc rods. time for aftermarket.. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>
rear sway bar bushings???
shouldnt be the subframe bushing, they clunk, not squeak, so be happy for that.

Is it a squeak or a short psst! (like someone trying to get your attention in the library)? If it's the latter, it's probably the gas/fluid getting forced through the orifice in the shocks. My rear KYB AGX's do that.
If it's a squeak...maybe a worn bushing somewhere???

Some springs squeak if you don't put on the stock plastic "thing" (like a tube) that covers the stock springs...pdm racing sells a product for the same purpose - check out their site.

I ahd this problem in my civic, believe it or not. Here's what it was:
Someone, not me because I'm perfect <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'> , was driving my car, and bottomed it out hard. I thought I had two blown shocks, from the way it sounded. When I looked underneath, I saw that the squeaking was coming from where the lower control arm was attached to the chassis. That joint had been crushed, and the metal was rubbing together, making a horrible noise. All I had to do was hit it with a BFH a couple of times to straighten it back out again.
Maybe you have a similar problem?

I did put the plastic "thing" on the spring.
When I drive the noise(eeiiik sound not psst) feel like come from the top off the shock.I might take it off and check it next tuesday.
If you guys have anything to add about the problem please help mee
Thanks
