squeeky suspension noise only on cold day

This past week I heard squeeky noise coming from the left front of my 1985 300D Turbo. Most noticeable during turning and over bumps.

Funny thing it only happens early in the morning when the temperature is under 60F. In the afternoon when termperature reaches above 70F, I do not notice any squeeky noises.

Any suggestions what might be wrong?


Thank you


David

When mine had that noise, it was lower ball joints.

If it is suspension rubber you can use dilute muriatic acid.. which can be found under "Ru-Glide" I think... it is a one gallon plastic bottle with a little in the bottom... you add water to make the gallon.. and it has about a three ft sprayer attached... works very well...
