TEIN Suspension Help

Right front TEIN FLEX Coilover. Squeeks even on slightly bumpy roads. Sounds like something is loose and is going to fall off! Only the right side. Help!

How long have you had the suspension on the car? I had the Tein HA's and then after about 4 or 5 months I started getting the squeeking noise too. I had the pillowball mounts so I think it had something to do with it. For some reason the Teins have been known to squeek a bit and make that squish noise.

It actually sounds like a bunch of washers in a plastic bag and then jiggling the bag around.
