Recently I have noticed that everytime I turn the steering wheel in either direction a sqeeking noise is emmited from my front suspension. Im not sure if this is a result of the very cold weather in my area(single digits at times), bad balljoints(no visible leaks or rips), or something else. Whatever it is it is driving me nuts and I was wondering if you guys have ever encountered anything like this and know what the cause of it is.
Any help is much appreciated

If you've still got the original factory springs, it's possible one or both broke. Check the bottom of the spring coils. The break is normally somewhere along the first turn.

aftermarket suspension....eibach sportlines on KYB agx's. I should've added that. The squeeks only occur when I turn the wheels, never from rolling over a bump or anything.

make sure all the points on the suspension are lubed. thats a very big thing to remember to do for winter the salt and road grime can damage parts. adding grease to certain points will help with handling but also to protect the parts in the winter. my honda shop manual shows the points on my del sol, i do it every oil change

Thanks, I'll most likely be trying that out tommorow ...hope it helps out.

There is a shield on the back side of the rotor, that might be rubbing somewhere when you turn. I had that problem before and the solution is to push that shield away from the rotor. A Honda tech showed me that little trick. Try it out before you do anything else, that could probably be the cause of your sqeaking. I don't think there is anything wrong with you suspension.

Well I checked things out....balljoints a-ok and then I saw the end of the CV boot tore off, the leak isnt so bad to where i'd notice without taking the wheel off so thats why I was questioning the problem. Looks like I'll be replacing a CV boot for the third time
