Has anyone fixed their front end squeek?

I have an 09 SS with 45k on it and when it's cold out the front end squeeks like crazy for the first mile of bumps. Then it stops. It used to happen when it was 32-35 degrees or below, but now it was 47 and she started sqeeking. Any ideas or remedies for this?

It doesn't appear to effect performance, it's just annoying.

Thanks

Adam

Sounds like you need to lube or replace a "gasket". Maybe shocks.

Sounds like your sway bar bushings are needing lubed up front, a bit of silicone spray lubricant will "shut them up" for a while. If they look like they're crumbling and cracking, try Energy Suspension for replacements. Since you have an SS you'd need the 23mm size.

@Pimphand, were you able to do the steps that the other members had suggested? I am curious if their suggestion have worked for you.

I have an extra set of the bushings. But I think it is the top of strut, mine did it when I was up in Canada, -14 °F, the dealer up there said it's a lube deal. If you want the bushings 20.00
