Squeaky suspension--what is it?
 
The rear suspension on my '00 civic coupe is VERY squeaky. Every little bump makes it squeak. I know one of the suspension components is shot, I just don't know which. Struts, springs, dampeners...? Any ideas?

squeaks are usually bushings. My rear bushings get real squeaky when it gets cold. Food for thought: I changed my front bushings to poly-urethane and lubed the hell out of them and they don't squeak at all. Even in the cold.

i love squeaky bushings! gives the car character and gets alot of looks in the winter hehe :) but yeah to the op, its prolly just the rear sway bar bushings. my rubber ones used to squeak all the time when it was new and i had to keep lubing them up. ironically, i switched to poly and now the rear doesnt squeak at all. the front is a different story lol.
