Screeching noise when going over bumps & breaking
Quick background: Had my breaks done twice in the past year because of a groan noise we couldn't figure out when breaking or coming off a stop while car was on an incline or decline.
Never went away. Also had control arms replaced.
Later shop recommended I replace the shocks, sway bar, and bushings. I let them replace them all.
Now car is handling better. No more groan when pitching forward or backward. But....now screeching or squeaking over every little bump on the road at low speeds or screeching while slowing down and breaking.
Anybody have any suggestions?
(I will take it back to have it looked at but with the advice I've gotten from dealers, and shops about this car that have turned out out to be wrong since I've had it is crazy.)
Long time reader of the forums here though and have found answers here before.

1. take hose ans spray control arm bushings with water. real well. Drive right away. Over bumps, of course. Any difference?
2. is it exactly same noise of it is different when braking? If it, report back, if it's same - see #1.
