Low speed front compression sound

Question for everyone,

Has anyone experienced a slight suspension compression/squeak from the front at low speeds going over bumps. Its not constant, its every few bumps and at low speed. Only suspension mod is millway street plates. I don't think its the infamous clicking, its more of a compression or small chirp sound. Anyone have similar?

Thanks

You will get more NVH even from street version camber plates. You are likely just hearing/feeling the valving inside the strut working. Strut guide and seal can make noise too, especially dust seal on a cold day.

That sounds right, I really wanted to say it sounded like strut compression but didn’t think you could hear it in the cabin ever. Good to know, I kinda enjoy it!
