I noticed yesterday that my TC suspension was making a squeaking sound, when going over a bump. It was very cold yesterday (about 10) and it does not seem to do it when it is warmer out. A few years ago it was making a similar sound and it turned out to be bad outer tie rod ends, they seem fine now tho. Could it have been the extream cold that was causing the noise? Thanks

Could have been the extreme cold. It does funny things to metal and lubricants.
If the ball joints are not sealed, you might want to consider using a grease gun and shooting some grease in them. It stopped my squeak back in the summer because the dealer installed non-sealed ball joints instead of the factory sealed ones.

The coil springs will squeak in the bottom of the spring pockets. Try spraying some WD 40 on the ends of the coils top and bottom. Several of my cars will do it, I know it's annoying.
