its the lca bushings. pretty positive. theres 3 bushings on each arm. where it mounts to the subframe, the suspension and the trailing arm. you can use silicone spray or wd40.

I had a squeak in the rear.. Changed struts/coils, nothing.. changed trailing arm bushings, nothing. Ended up being the rear upper control arms. The bushings were shot.

Spray some silicone spray on the bushings and see if the squeak goes away. If it does you know you need to replace them. Don't spray every bushing like I did.. Just do one at a time till you find it.

Mine was coming from the rear deck when pressure was applied.

When I go around turns or over bumps, the body will twist a little bit and the rear deck squeaks. wd-40 fixed it.
