Default "Creeeking " noise ........

The other day I went to sit in my car when I was leaving the house and when I sat down, I heard a " Creeeking " noise coming from the rear, drivers side... I got out of the car and pushed on the quater panel and it made the noise again. It sounded like it was coming out of the wheel well..

Anyone have ANY idea where this noise is coming from exactly and how I can get that fixed?

I know it has nothing to do with my rims and **** cuz I had that checked out by Americas Tire Co. And they said that my lug nuts are nice and tight ( since I didnt go back for a re-torque after the 500 mile limit after I had the rims installed ) So they arnt loose. But thats the only thing I can really think of that could have been a problem ..

It's your springs. They are rubbing. Don't worry about it, nothing's going to break. Mine do it all the time.

Did you put any lowering springs or coilovers on your car recently?

It's gotta be the springs. Mine do it sometimes, but not all the time.

If you want to try and do something about the noise go get some WD-40 and spray all the bushings with it and see if it still sqeaks. If it still does, its the springs. you can buy some silencer things for them from tien. They have them on the OEM springs too.

I had the same problem man, it was a bolt on the control arm that was not in all the way, It was also coming from the driverside rear.

it could litterally be any point on the rear suspension making that noise.
