I've had coilovers on my car for over a year now and one just started sqeaking over every change/bump/hole on the road. Does this mean its shot, or its just making noise.....can I stop the noise? Thanks for any help on this....and i haven't looked around yet so if this is discussed elsewhere let me know. Thanks,

The squeaking stopped due to the power of WD-40, thanks for the recommendation.... but my coilover in the front left makes a creaking noise like the spring is shifting whenver i turn sharply like in parking lots thats been going on for about 6 months now, Maybe the spring just shifts everywhere? Thats my next issue to tackle.... my car is lowered about 2 inches i'd say.
