Went over some speed bumps at about two miles an hour and noticed a sound like squeaking mattress springs. Really annoying. Anybody got an idea what it is?

Probably your seats if its coming from the inside. my seats have a squeak whenever the car travels up and down over bumps.

Wish that was it. But the sound is coming from the front end. If I push down on the front bumper, I hear the squeak. Something in the suspension.

probably a bushing rubbing in either the upper or lower control arm; there's got to be something you can 'spray' that won't deteriorate the rubber.

Maybe a silicone spray will fix it. I'll try that.
