squeaking sound, right rear

My maxima makes a squeaking sound when driving in the right rear corner, usually when going over bumps. I tried pushing the rear of the car up and down in the driveway and couldn't reproduce the sound. could it be the mounts for the exhaust pipe or something? thanks in advance, I may post an mp3 of the sound later if I find a recorder to do it with.

Its not much help but, I thought I'd mention that I have the same problem also. Do you have a sunroof? If so, it could be the visor, if it is pushed back in the ceiling and not covering the window. I've been trying to find out what that sound is but, I think it could be the pillow mounts (think thats what its called) on the strut towers, or something like that. I remember reading about it before.

I have aftermarket suspention and experience the same problem in the right rear corner. Hope it could help by taking it apart and see whats going on.

My front driver side tire squeaks. It almost sounds like the brake pad being worn down, because it goes away when I brake, except it's a brand new pad, only has like, 20k miles on it, and it's done it ever since I had my alignment done.
I think it might have something to do with the fact that 2 of the studs are broken, and I have the stock aluminum rims.
Just thought I'd toss it out there
