    Default are my springs on there way out?

    driving into work today. pulled into the business centre i work at (speed Bump Heaven) and when i was driving slow over the bumps, i was getting a sound like an old squeaky bed, never herd this before in the past.

    what do you guy's think?

    I used to get this all the time with my 53 reg Vectra. Turned out to be dry suspension / anti-roll bar rubber bushes.
