F3 Squeak when going over bumps

[Tazzel]

I recently developed a squeak when going over bumps at slow speeds (at least that is when I hear it). I think it is coming from the front left shock. Has anyone had this problem and if so, what did it turn out to be.

I've noticed that my engine on my F3s keeps running after going over bumps!

WowPDX your a real help.

Sounds like a defective shock or a noisy control arm bushing. Try this: Put some weight with your foot on the round bar just behind the wheel. If you can get any of the noise, a hollow pvc pipe or even a broom handle touching your ear should help to pinpoint it. Also, for $10, at Auto Zone you can purchase a mechanics' stethoscope.
Good luck!

I wouldn't even say "defective"... something is just needing a little bit of grease on a pivot point: that's all.
