I can better help you, I also do not know your skill levels so do not be offended if they seem to basic. During this conversation you will be given an automated offer for a phone call. You may accept or decline that offer. Sounds most likely a suspension issue, probably a dry bushing. Two things you can do to start, either have it rust proofed which probably in Australia you don't need or Have someone bounce the vehicle in the area of the squeak so you can isolate it. Usually these issues are a dry bushing that can be lubricated with a rubber or synthetic grease. **How to lubricate rubber bushings** Getting the lubricant to work properly might be a bit tricky. To lubricate the rubber bushing in your car, first you need to remove the bolt holding the component with the bushing. This should be relatively easy to see on the chassis underneath the car. Here is a **step-by-step guide of how to lubricate rubber bushings** : 1. Jack the car up off the ground safely. 2. Locate the bushing. The bushings are encased in a bushing cap with a bar running through it (this bar could be the sway bar or any other bar in the suspension system). 3. Unscrew the bolt in the bushing cap with a socket-wrench and open it up. The bushing should be underneath and pop out easily. 4. Check the quality of the bushing. 5. Wearing gloves, carefully spray the bushings both on the inside and outside. The inside where it touches the bar is most important, but spraying the outside will help too. 6. Replace the bushing on the bar. 7. Replace the cap over the bushing and Screw the bolt back in with the socket-wrench. **Best lubricant for rubber bushings** The problem with some rubber bushings is that they are made of rubber. While it is an effective material for providing protection against suspension vibration, they are also more susceptible to certain types of wear. As we said before, petroleum based products can damage the rubber and cause it to break more easily. The same goes if you lubricate your bushings with a **petroleum based lubricant**. The best lubricants for rubber bushings are **silicon** based lubricants, white **lithium** grease or a particular rubber lubricant. You should be able to find these different lubricant types at any motor product store. Polyurethane bushings shouldn't be lubricated with oil or petroleum based lubricants. They do not work as effectively as others and can lead to breakages.
