I assume you're out of warranty? Anyway, grease the compression rod bushings and see if the noise goes away. If you search, you should be able to find the DIY thread on that.

its only on right side, it makes sounds when i go on a bumpy road with little rocks. when i push down the car from that cornor it makes like a rubbing sound kind of like its hitting something.

I had a sound that was coming from my front suspension when I would go up/down driveways and speed bumps. I took it to the dealer and they grease the compression rods and the sound is gone!!

Then that doesn't sound like compression rods...

more of a click sound, not like a huge rubbing sound. like KrazyEd said, when i go over speed bumps, or up and down driveways i get this sound from one side.
