squeak from driver side wheel area

I have a very annoying squeak from the driver side wheel area.anyone have a fix for this...seems to happen more when the car is cold, and goes over bumps. Been to dealers with out a fix. Its odd, because my car seems pretty tight, no rattles, no tranny (33k) and i drive the hell out of it.

thanks,
Craig.

It might very well be a bad sway bar end link or a strut that has gone bad .Check the strut by looking oil leaking out of it check the sway bar end link by trying to see if there is any play on the joints ( a pry bar helps here ) .

Mine was a ball joint also. Changed the wheel bearing for good measure.
