Squeak when I exit the car

Whenever I get out of my '05 sedan I hear a little squeak from the underbody. Anybody have this before? I know, could be any number of things but thought perhaps somebody has had this fixed before. And no, I'm not a giant fat a$$, so save the jokes

Rear Axle, is in relation of a ticking sound when you start moving from a stop. Nothing to do with a squeak.

Could you give more explanation? When you open the door? When you get up off your seat?

Does it happen when you lift your left a$$ cheek off the seat or the right cheek?

Is that the only time you ever hear it?

Lubing your sway bar bushings may help, but there's also a DIY for snugging up a cross brace or some such -- I think it was by DaveB, I'll try to find it since I need it myself (lube sway bushings and that didn't resolve my noise).

EDIT: this was as close as I could find to the x-brace tightening DIY. Maybe if it's nice this weekend I'll do mine and post some pics.

Thanks, I was thinking it might be a bushing that needs to be lubed or something along those lines. Would I use lithium grease to lube those or something else? The dealer tightened up the x-brace last year, but I am thinking that's not it anyhow since the sound definitely seems to be coming from underneath the exterior of the car when my body weight lifts off of the car and the car moves up ever so slightly.
