Squeaky noise coming from driver side front suspension

[tenguzero]

When ever I drive over speedbumps, or rock the front of my car, I hear a squeaking coming from what I assume to be the ?spring? In the left front. It's not super loud, but it's king of annoying. I haven't done any suspension modification, everything's stock. Any ideas?

my guess is thats it the bushing. springs done normally squeak on their own since there arent really any moving parts.

ive noticed that too. but i hear it more in the mornings when its cold outside. how can i get rid of it? do i just grease them?

[tybalt29]

I get the same squeaking but only when i first take it out, after i drive for about 5 miles it stops. I'll take any suggestions to stop the sound

Yup, maybe it is a problem with accords....cause I have it also, especially when it is cold in the mornings, or when i first drive it....It usually goes away in a few minutes though. I did notice that it got worse after I lowered my car about 1.5"...

I haven't lowered mine yet, and it just recently started happening. maybe it is because it is the original suspension, and has over 127,775 miles on it, probably is due for a new suspension anyway. any suggestions on a good not too expensive suspension????

my car does it too, making it have nothing to do with the fact that its an accord. you can try switching to the polyurathane bushings, or just replace the ones you have now with new oem bushings. im pretty sure they need to be greased up when they are installed, but im not too knowledgeable about bushings.

Hey, thanx everyone. At least it seems like I'm not the only one. I'd just like to add also, that it seemed to start happening once it got colder out. Maybe it's an age thing. I'll check the bushings though

If anyone has a definite answer to this myterious noise, let me know. I sure would like to get rid of mine. Until then, I'll leave the damn thing alone since its way too cold, this time of the year, to be messing around outside.

[strodda]

yea, please let us know. it seems everyone has the problem, but nobody knows how to fix it

I HAVE THE SAME FUCKING PROBLEM, IT'S EMBARASSING WHEN YOU ROLL UP ON SOME HONEY'S AND IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMEBODY IS FUCKING IN THE BACK. MINE MAKES A CLICKING SOUND WHEN I HIT BUMPS WHAT IS IT??

yea its been happening to mine also i drive an 1997 accord couple and i droped it bout 3 inches...and at first it didnt happen as the weather changed it became annoying as fruck

I had a similar sound in my '86 Accord, and it turned out to be broken springs. It made the creeking sound over bumps and when I would push down on the front corners. I used it as an opportunity to get a budget lowering job and removed the broken springs, and then cut some off the other springs until I had the stance I wanted.

Worked fine until the front springs started breaking again. They break near the ends and look like they're ok until you remove the wheel and get a close up view. Pull the wheels and inspect your springs - look close to see if you see cracks.
