hearing a squeak

I keep hearing a squeak but i can't pinpoint where it is coming from. I think it is coming from somewhere inside the car but i can't tell. It could be from the rear suspension too. Maybe also due to the fact that my driverside rear quarter panel jiggles. It is like the clips are not holding it in place. You guys know so much figured your endless knowledge can help me out.

I really wish i could pin point it. I can't really tell if it is coming from the front the side or the rear. All I know is that it is annoying as all hell.

It's def. annoying, for me it comes from the left rear of the car, sounds like it's on the inside of the car. I'd believe it if I was told it was the back seat latches, I'll have to fold my seats down today and ride around to see if it goes away.

This fan thing you speak of, does it make a clicking noise? I hear a clicking from the passenger side dash vent, on speed 1, and it clicks faster on speed 2, then goes away (or is covered by the noise) on the higher speeds.

Yep, that's a known issue too. We had a thread about it but I don't have the link handy. Listen real close and you'll hear a high-pitched whine on the "3" and "4" settings. That should be warrantied.

Might work, but you'd probably be in there replacing the tape every so often

so suspension could be a culprit too huh....control arm bushings in the front and is there anything in the rear suspension that could be making it squeak?

what about the lose left rear bumper right behing the drivers side rear tire. How many people has that problem?
