Just over the last few days, I have noticed when driving over slightly rough road at a low speed, (i.e my driveway,) there is a squeak/creak from the front suspension. The car is lowered etc so it is a hard ride. I just wondered if that was a component needing greased or is it a sign of something on its way out....

Cheers guys

i was getting a squeaking sound before and found out it was my shocks.. it wasn't blown or anything but would make this noise at every bump.

other than that, i don't know what else would make a 'squeaking' noise.

yes i replaced the shock and it fixed my problem. again, it might not be your shocks. try to have a friend pushed down to bounce the car up and down and listen to where the sound is coming from.. that's what i did and i found out the sound was coming straight from the shocks.. and not from the bushings or other joints...
