Hey guys,

Everytime I drove over a speed hump or any where that's bumpy, the front left corner squeaks. Could it be the shocks/springs? What is it?

Happened on a few of my previous EG's.

I changed the springs and the sound went away.

Safe to say it's the springs.

Nothing dangerous though, so nothing to get scared about.

your rep points are WORTHLESS. Dont post a thread with bribery such as that.

even ppl with 0-99 rep points (ie. 1 green block) is worthless.

I wouldn't be so quick to say it's harmless, could very well be the lower ball joint (which is more of a creak than a squeak, however).
