Unhappy Squeaking sound when turning and over bumps

Hi,

After a alignment my cars making a squeacking sound when its cold and when I turn or go over bumps unevenly. It comes from the front passenger.

The sound usually goes away when the car is warmed up.

Ive checked all the ball joints and my mechanic says that there isnt any leaking/loose balljoint.

Could it possibly be dry even when the ball isnt leaking ?

Regards Milad

couldnt see anything wrong with the strut mounts. The sound is only there when the Weather is cold. When I lift the car there isnt a single little sound. Only when lowering to standard height when going over bumps and steering then the sound comes unoccasionally.
