Suspension Squeaks...Help!
Hey guys, so i installed my Tein S Tech springs last thursday. Everything seems fine but now theres an awful squeak/Creek sound coming from the front left side. It makes the most noise going over speed bumps and up driveways and such. Do you guys know what it could be? I hope something could fix it because im getting sick of the sound fast! 
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Thanks for the help guys. I think it might be the spring settling, because it stops squeaking after a lil while of driving. Lets hope it stops! 
Oh and how long do you guys think my stock struts will last on these springs before I need to replace them. I know I should of done that with the springs but didn't.

Didn't know you got the exhasut.. looks killer.. The springs will still settle a bit so it may lower a little more in a week or so..

Check the spring if its sitting down properly in its lower perch or upper mount. If its not properly installed...it may cause noise.
also, check the suspension sticky thread regarding fake S-tech springs....I hope yours are authentic tein s-tech springs.

Thanks for the compliments guys! The springs are not counterfeit because i got them from D2 auto designs, whom are registered dealers.
The front is still squeking pretty bad, only on the left side. I went to my friends shop and waited 1 1/2 hours then he said he was too busy to look at my car so the problem remains unsolved. If anybody knows a good shop in North county SD let me know. And im kinda wishing i went with megans now since the ride is still way to soft for my likinig 
Anyways thanks for the help guys!

well, you can start by doing some trouble shoot. i would get a can of spray lube and start spraying just a little bit of lube ONE AREA at a time then drive the car immediately to see if the noise goes away. if its still there, then spray another area of the suspension with a little lube then drive your car again until the noise is gone. The very last part that you sprayed and the noise went away should be your ticket. remember to spray a small area at a time and go out for a test drive to confirm.
