I've had a God awful noise, squeak of some kind, albeit on the drivers side, sprayed spring, and anything else on front end, down with PB blaster, eventually stopped. This happens after driving in winter, thinking, salt spray.

No salt here, and I have located the noise to the connection at the unibody.
