Default Squeaky Suspension Problems

my dad just has the pleasure of owning an 03 ls430 with the air suspension package. he has recently informed me that under cold conditions the front suspension squeaks over small bumps. however, the problem seems to dissapear when the weather gets warmer. Any suggestions as to what may be causing this? any solutions?


thanks in advance from my dad,

-Brandon

It's the front sway bar bushings. Quite common.

Have them lubed, and if it comes back have them replaced (under warranty).

Don't know. My front suspension has been a neverending nightmare ever since I have owned the car. Oddly, mine gets wose when the weather gets WARM. It has squeaked, rattled, and Lord knows what else. I hope they have fixed this on the 07 LS460!!!
