Default Very Squeaky 98 EX

I don't know what it could be. Last year, I had the upper ball joints replaced. Just this past month, I replaced the lower ball joints. I'm still getting squeaks All the time. While I'm turning, while i'm driving, if someone gets out of the car. Does anyone have any idea what it could be? Any help woud be greatly apprecitated. Thanx!

you mentioned also when turning. Have you checkd your tie rods? Also, look at your control arms and make sure they're not cracked. Is this only isolated to the front of the vehicle?

Yes, also when turning. When I had the upper balljoints replaced, they told me that the control arm had to be replaced too, so i guess they repaced it. When i had the lower ball joints done, they said the same thing.

And yes, it's only limited to the front of the car. I was also told by a friend that it could be a bushing. Could that be possible?

Sorry, No I haven't checked the tie rods. Would that makeea noise like that?

bushings can create a squeak.
I would recommend getting the whole front suspension looked over

it may need just a general overhaul, so u may have to spend little money

squeaks when getting off the car is suspension related, try spraying wd40 on the strut bushing and see if the noise goes away. if it does, then your will need t0 buy the silicone type lube to fix the problem. i think energy suspension carries them. or maybe your shocks or struts and blown already.

Did you ever find out what the problem was specifically? My 95 Accord is squeaking on bumpy surfaces, when you push down on the hood, but especially when I turn the wheel. Even in park is does it. thanks
