Default squeeking noise
Hello everyone and happy holidays. I have a problem and hope you guys can help me with. The front right side of my car squeeks when I am driving or when getting in or out of my car. The noise is only coming from the front passenger side. I took it to a shop and they told me it was my wheel baring, they also said everything else looked fine. This does not sound right to me. When the car is parked I move the front right side up and down and can hear the noise. The only thing i have done to the car was lowered it with eibach springs. Thanks in advance for your guys input.

Hi. I have 51000 miles on the car. No they have never been replaced, they are the original ones. How much does a job like that run? thanks.

Could be. Or strut, but sure doesn't sound like a bearing which would be more a constant "growl". Also, that it squeaks when getting out of car clearly points to suspension, not a bearing.
Suggest you ask around for a good mechanic and let them listen - get a second opinion.
