Squeak
So I have this front end squeak. And I'm looking for suggestions to bring to my dealer who has to date been unable to
silence the annoying noise. They replaced a three-month old shock and mounts, and thrust bushings, which silenced
the beast for a week or so, but the squeak returned with a vengeance, so they replaced one of the replacements, which
was good for about a week, but the old girl is squeaking like a well-worn bed from a French comedy.
They are decent folks, as far as dealers go, but I feel like I need to bring them some suggestions beyond another bad shock.
I've seen posts suggesting sway-bar links and dried out bushes, and was hoping someone might have some insights
based on actual experience. It's a 2013 R, with 37K.
cheers

Is this a squeak that happens as you're rolling down the street (a constant squeak squeak squeak) or is it more of a chirp that happens when you hit sharp bumps in the road? At least my front left chirps when hitting bumps and I highly suspect it is the bushings. I plan on taking it in later this year when the world calms down. Would appreciate to know what the problem ended up being if you do fix it!

Spoke with the dealer today, where the car has been for a week. They've given me a 2020 XEs as a consolation prize I imagine as they're an Aston dealer as well.
But back to the squeak. Thye've been in constant contact with Jag USA in Jersey (New) trying to pinpoint the cause and fix, so far without success. The amusing thing
is the sales department called to see if I were interested in selling the beast as they have buyers! Of course I told them that if the right DB9 was in their possession,
I'd be more than happy in making a trade. So the short answer is no, I don't know the cause or the fix.
Separately, I just completed season 3 of Gomorrah. Season 4 in in transit. Holy ****. I guess those of you in the UK you already know this.
peace, and keep your distance.
