Front end squeaking

00 civic ex coupe

When you press the front end down nothing is heard, but when I drive and feel any deformity in the road when it's dry the front end squeaks like crazy. Sometimes if I hit a bump it squeaks, but usually when I go 45+ it squeaks constantly. It's not the axles/wheels.

I am planning on upgrading to skunk2 coilovers and camber kits and polyurethane bushings. Could it be the control arm bushings?

Re: Front end squeaking

I got a squeak too, went to the shop, but they couldnt find out what it was. Although we narrowed it down to the front passenger side. It could be coming from my compliance bushing since there is a minor tear in it. But the mechanic couldnt feel any vibrations coming from it.

Re: Front end squeaking

it just might be my front struts doing it. If you changed all that and are still having squeak problems.
