Rear Suspension Noise?

I bought a used '04 TSX used and have had to get plethora of things fixed/replaced already under warranty.

Anyway, my latest issue a noise coming from the rear passengers side, which I am assuming is the suspension? I can't replicate this noise by pushing down on the rear, but I can hear it every time I go over dip in the road, or a speed bump. It sounds like the coil in the suspension being pushed in? I was under the assumption that was supposed to be a silent process. Has anyone experienced this? Can they lubricate the suspension or something?

I'm going to ask Acura about it when I go in next week, they're replacing some front moulding on the dash because it's speaking/rattling/rubbing.

Stock shocks/springs, or aftermarket?

I got the Comptech rear sway bar and I think mine is doing the same thing. Every time I go over a dip or speed bump, especially only when one tire goes over, it makes like a bump noise. I think maybe the rubber is sticky and the bump makes it slide past a friction point and makes it make a noise.

I'm going to try to take it off, put silicon spray all over the inside so the bar slides around better, and even try to put some clothe inside with the spray so it holds the goo longer. Any thoughts?

There have been issues with the endlink on the rear suspension breaking. May check that first.

Everything in my car is original, I just think the previous owner must have really abused my poor car because of all the issues I've had with it.

This noise isn't so much of a bump, as it is like the sound of the coil depressing when I go over thru dips or over speed bumps. It's hard to describe, but the closest analogy I can think of is the noise u get when sit on and old box-spring mattress and the springs make that noise... lol
