What else could it be???
I have had a squeaking noise coming from the right front of my car for sometime now. Yesterday i got 2 new rear tires and had the shop change out my front wheel bearings, lower ball joints, and steering drag link with tie rod ends. thinking this would make the squeak go away... but it didn't! its still there. I have just lowered and changed my shocks to bilsteins about 2,000 miles ago. Do you think it could be a bad bilstein shock or a bad rubber shock mount? they are brand new.. any idea or help you can give me would be great. i have searched the forums over and over about this noise but eveyone said it was probly lower ball joints or draglink. so i replaced both.. steering feels amazingly solid now though.. but the squeak it still there.. any ideas?

i may have the same issue. i have what seems like a rotational squeek. almost like the brake pad grabbing. but they arent. the annoyhing part is that sometimes it turns to an all out shriek. most of the time it happens when im going around a bend in the road towards the right that is banked the wrong way. i too have repacked the bearing and had the tie rods replaced.
this is by far one of the biggest annoyances about my car. i love the car but this stuff is embarassing.
