Squeaks are annoying.

Squeaks are annoying.
So I get some annoying squeaks from the car when I drive over uneven roads with a lot of little potholes in them. Large bumps/potholes do not seem to create this sound.
I have tried recreating the sound by bouncing it at each strut point, and there is no sound there. Anyone know where any common squeak points are?

it's time for subframe bracing for you, sir. Good thing for you we're designing some
squeaks just happen....I've eliminated tons of them (doors, windows, dash, glove box, center console) and still have more to do.

yeah, i got rid of the rear deck rattle, and now i'm starting to notice more and more smaller squeaks and rattles here and there...the most annoying one is somewhere on my front dash...i'm thinking that i didn't clip in my microfilter the last time i checked it so it's bouncing around in there, because that's what it sounds like when i go over bumps....also, i just started to hear this weird rattle coming from right around my driver's side rear strut mount...could it be loose? hmm....
Eventually i plan to get SFCs but i wanna get an RSB and LTB first....if only my funds would permit me to do so haha

Alright - Lets start at the top. Im going to do some sound deadening on the rear doors to help get rid of the wind noise, but what do you have to do to the rest to get rid of creaks? I have a rattling sound coming from my passenger side dash, right where the A pillar meets the dash... nothing seems loose up there. Could it possibly be from the cold weather?

at least were not alone. my car has noises too, the one i wonder about is a noise from the suspension i guess, kinda like a rattle, without the repetition, a "bump" noise. I think these noises have to do partially with the cold weather, turn the music up! SE suspention is not new england friendly and a solid rear axle doesnt help. my sis's 98 altima rides better than my 2003 max.
