Default Sqeaky noise

I have this squeak when ever I turn my steering wheel the squeak comes from the right side of the car and when I drive and go over bumps or anything that is not smooth road surface the squeak appears. Is it my shocks? I have an MY03 with about 55K, don't think the original owner changed the shocks.
I was thinking if it might be the heat shield behind the brake rotor but then wouldn't it make a rattling noise instead of a squeaky noise?
Any suggestions?

it might be the bushing in the strut mount. its probably a rubber bushing somewhere in your suspension that has worn out overtime and just needs to be replaced. best thing to do is get a buddy and jack up the car to see if you can find it, if not take it to a specialty shop that deals with suspension work and have them "diagnose" the issue.

im having the same issue coming from the front i cant tell where its coming from at all. driving me crazy, sometimes it sounds like its coming from the dash sometimes it sounds like its coming from the suspension, only happens when going over bumps though
