noticed recently that my rear suspension has been rather squeaky recently, obviously over bumps but for some reason it has started doing this and become noticeable

happens when its just me in the car and its a 1.4 99 3dr on standard suspension afaik

just curious as to what it is despite the fact i am getting rid fairly soon

My coilovers have squeaked since i got them. I dont think its something to worry about. But why not take a wheel off and have a look underneath?

I have to agree, dont think its anything to worry about, my standard suspension squeaked when i went over speed bumps etc. Now i have a lowering suspension kit (Struts and Springs) and they squeak aswell, not as bad as the standard suspension but they still do it.

Think it must be something to do with the way the cars are designed or something.
