ok, so i had this loud noise come from the front of my car every time i made a slight rotation in the steering wheel, i thought it was the control arm, so i changed it, then i changed the tie rod end, then i changed the lower control arm, and the noise is still there. it makes a squeacking sound, like a old rusty door. i dont know what else it could be. i just got kyb shocks ant tenzo springs put it, camber kit, and i have no clue what could be making that noise. its driving me nuts and its very embarassing. suggestions anyone?
 
squeking? take some grease and grease the spring perches..



the sqeak only happens when you turn while standing or while driving?

have someone turn the wheel and you listen where its coming from.

2g.. so its probably a rusty spring seat or the upper controlarm? maybe something is rubbing..maybe its the dust gard behind your rotors.. bend it back (especially at the bottom where the joints from the lower control arms are)
 
Check your power steering, if it's not that check your struts. Struts will start to squeak when they're worn out.
 
To me, it seems like the power steering would squeak all the time or when the steering wheel hits lock all the way to left or right. Try pushing down on the fenders on each corner to depress the suspension. Go up and down a couple times. If it squeaks, it's most likely struts.
