Spider883 will become famous soon enough

one possiblity is that the bushinings arent set right and that they arent greesed enough.

They might still be breaking in and if that's not the problem a little WD-40 never hurts

AB-definetly check your bushings. My coilovers also make a lot of noise, I mean a lot. And after scrutinizing my coilovers I found that it was the rear right bushing, it was all torn and I guess the spring was rubbing against something else and was making an annoying, sqeaking noise. I have replace the bushings and all noise has been eliminated.
