Default Squeaking Noise from Tein Flex

Hey everyone,

I need help. I have this ANNOYING squeaking noise coming from the rear of my car, I installed it with Tein Flex a year ago and 3 months later in Feb this year, I decided the drop was not low enough so I stupidly asked a tune shop to lower the rear 1 inch and the front 1/2 inch. After which the car scraped like there's no tomorrow. So I decided to raise the height.

The squeaks started to come, in the beginning only on the rebound, but now it is everything everywhere everytime. I tightened the coilovers but that did not seem to work. My bushings are still good.

Any clues?

Thanks
