Alright, so a while back I noticed some squeaking coming from the rear of my car, usually when running over a really rough road. It's progressed now to an almost constant squeaking. It's really loud, happens mostly on rough or uneven roads, downshifts, letting off the gas too quickly or getting on it too quickly, harder shifts, or cornering. I went outside earlier, and pushed down on the rear of the car, and bounced it around a few times, without any kind of sound, so my guess is it's not shocks or springs. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I am about to replace my front axles due to cv joints going bad.

Also, I got on it a little bit earlier today, and it threw a CEL that came up egr and insufficient flow. it doesn't seem to be altering performance or mileage, so I'm not too worried about it at the moment since it's just emissions equipment and a lot of cars just get it blocked off anyways, but if there's reason for me to be you should probably go ahead and tell me. :dsm:
 
Had similar sounds on my mustang and it ended up being i needed new ball joints. they dry out and crack and make all kinds of sounds when running over bumps and turning.
