Default Squeak From Drivers Front???

Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for another issue I have with my car.

I have a squeak/chip noise that seems to be coming from the front drives side, wheel or shock tower area. I can make it squeak by standing beside the car and pushing down on the fender. Its a very loud squeak, wondering if this is an idication of something being broken or if maybe something needs to be lubricated/greased?

Any input appreciated.

Thanks,

Joel

Get someone to do the pushing whilst you get your ears closer to the sound.

Regular culprits are:

1. Upper Wishbone Bushes
2. Lower Wishbone Bushes
3. Ball Joints
4. Shock Absorber top mounting
5. Shock Absorber bottom bush
