I posted in a new thread. Nissan has finally posted a service bulletin for this issue.

[QUOTE=trix_05;7294298]Hi everyone,

I’ve owned my ’09 Maxima for since September and have had this recurring problem with my suspension. Whenever I go over wide speed bumps or road “dips”, my rear suspension (sounds like the right side) squeaks. This problem seems to be amplified by cold weather. It is getting colder here in Toronto and as it does the squeak happens more frequently.
I took the car to the dealer about 3 weeks ago and during the drive with the mechanic, I couldn’t reproduce the problem (always my luck). However, they hoisted the car and said that they had lubricated both rear bushings – yet the problem persists.
Is this a problem anyone else is having? Any ideas as to what is causing this noise?

Thanks for reading, looking forward to responses.

What did u find out about the squeaking noise and how much was it to fix? My '09 Maxima is doing that when I hit a bump or take off and it's driving me crazy!!

 

mine seemed to be in the rear sway bar bushings, once i had the Stillen RSB installed and the bearings greased good, I don't hear the noise anymore

 

I have the same thing in my 2010. I cant tell you how annoying this car is with rattles and noises, i've always loved my Maxima's, but I hate this one. The sunroof is noisy as hell with rattles as well, along with countless other ones I havent been able to find

 

I have the same creaking noise from my rear suspension and replacing the rear sway bar and bushings didn't cure it. I am going to lift the car up and check the other joints on the rear of the car. The rsb bushings are all well lubed so it must be another component that is giving us issues. I'll post what I find.
