Tein ss squeak

Has anyone found out where this squeaking noise is comming from? after 15k miles or so mine just started squeaking (front drivers side),, and i figured out that softer the setting, more noise it makes.

both crunch and squeak...but most likely squeaking noise at all speeds unless I hit a pretty good size bump. I also thought it needed to be lubed so I did both upper and lower perch but it didnt fix the problem. Let me know when youre back from the shop.

i have the same problem with my tein SS, i would say it sounds like a creak of some sort, i think people have put "spring sleeves" or what have you around the coils to prevent this sound or to help deaden it, search it tho, you should have some answers in there, enough of us have the SS
