Default noise when going over slight inclines

Hi


When i go over bumps/inclines say over 20mph, i hear a weird, well squeak noise coming from the rear. No its not a "mouse" or "eva longoria" in my boot!

The squeak noise is only apparent for a split second, but i dont know if its the shocks? Im guessing it is.

Any ideas?

Maybe a shocks fecked? though i guess id know about it if one was!!

Do you notice it more when you have not been driving for long (engine cold) or if its wet?

My old S had this, had Honda check it but they could not find any thing.

There's a TSB for this. I can't remember exactly what it is but I believe its a relatively common problem. Its rear suspension related and something needs to be removed and re-greased.

It used to be described as a clicking when you stop, and then go forward - or go from forward to reverse.

It isnt the clicking noise as thats associated with the hub nuts, i leaving the car standing a while, it must be something else?
