Question Front End Squeak. HELP !

I own a 05 Coupe. My problem is that I have this annoying creak coming
from the suspension on the front end. I have had it to the dealership 3
times they have changed the compression rod bushings and sway bar links
but the squeak is still there. It is only evident at slow speeds when going over uneven pavement especially when making a turn. Does anyone have any
experience with this ? The dealer ship can't find anything wrong but it
is so annoying to me. I don't think it is anything major but I would like
to get some peace of mind. Any suggestions or previous experience with
this issue ? Thanks

I had that problem awhile ago...in the front end there are rubber boots at the suspension joints. In my case the grease in those boots dried up. Instead of replacing them (which was expensive) my mechanic took a grease gun with a small needle connection and filled all the boots back up with lubricant. Then we sealed up the small holes with some sort of silicone compound (I forget what he called it) and that took my squeaks away. It has been about three years since the fix, and it is still quiet. This may or may not be your problem.

well the squeaking in my car has gotten to the point where i need to make a post about it. its driving my f'in insane! its this little squeak that is heard anytime i go over bumps or anything uneven. although the OP said its coming from the suspension, in my case it sounds like somewhere near the seats.

and i thought my subaru was annyoing with the rattles...that's expected compared to being half the price of this car.

GREASE THE CHASSIS!! Start with the sway bushings and go after every moving part that have bushings

My G just started making some sort of squeaking noise last night driving home. I think it has something to do with one of my belts because it is somewhat of a rotating sound.. if that makes any sense. All I know is when I go faster it slowly starts to fade out (like I need an excuse ) Hopefully it doesn't cost much to fix!

AC belt? Hmm.. interesting. After driving around with a friend we started thinking it was a wheel problem, like something is wrong with the front axle or bearing.
Went to the Nissan dealership yesterday to see if their guys could look at it. By the time I got there the service part was closed.. However, I did get to see the new GTR up close and personal... sexy.

The sound of the belts going bad is very different that the sound of bearings. When you hear the sound try turning the AC off, if the problem is the AC belt the noise should disappear.
