    squeaking/creaking from front part 2

    Hey everyone. So I've replaced ALL the bushings on the front end with greased poly ones and the noise still occurs. It ONLY happens when it's cold outside and I can only hear it on the passenger side.

    When I push down on the front right or push the car lateraly no noise occurs, so it only happens when driving over dips.

    I'm honestly stumped. I have new springs, struts, spc upper ball joints, new honda OEM lower ball joints, new tie rods, and new bushings.

    This noise occured prior to me even touching the suspension.

    Could a motor mount cause that noise? It's the only rubber thing left on the right front (beside a CV joint boot)

    Thanks!
    Cris P.

      What about you ball joints or upper control arms? Any worn or bent?

          All ball joints are new. The lowers are OEM Honda, and the uppers are SPC adjustables. I used the honda upper control arm and didn't see any damage to it.

          It's the same squeak as before and it ONLY happens when its cold outside; below 55 or so.

            You will never find this noise without being able to reproduce it with the car parked. Once you can do that, show someone how to do what you did and start looking; use an automotive stethescope to help.

              I had a squeek in my front end and that was because my coil was cracked, I found this out when I put my coilovers on. Near the top where the coil sits in the top hat it was cracked.

                I've tried to reproduce the noise with the car sitting still; no luck! I've pushed down on the front and then laterally side to side with no noise being made.

                My coils are brand new nuespeed springs.

                If the control arm was bent, then I'm guessing I wouldn't be able to get a good alignment.
