At the moment, the front right has started sqeaking ( overnight!) really badly! worst if i driving along or if i turn to right!! also creaks when i get out of the car so figure it definatly the suspension! tried spraying WD40 on spring but hasnt helped! any ideas?? can springs just start sqeaking? or is it something on the wheel arm( dunno what to call it as i know nothing bout cars!)

any help greatly appreciated!

Strut. Shock. CV joint. One, couple, all three. Have it looked at by the dealer. Usually no charge. They can tell ya in about 8 sec.
It is best to, when you hear that creak, re-do the front suspension. Might as well hit the CV's and get the 4-wheel align. Should not run more than 1100 dollars. Or you can just get the one set of shock/strut on that side for 150 or so. Believe it or not, the dealer usually is pretty cheap for this.

By the way... they do just start! (To squeak) One day fine, Get in next morn...Creak. It is the most annoying of all car ailment sounds too.
When you turn to that side if you cave a click of sorts in the turn, the CV is bad as well.
