Default squeaky front spring

again newb question but my front driver side wheel has a squeak when i ride over a bump or push down on the fender...is there a specific area i should spray some wd40? or does the squeak mean more than that. I think i need to just lube it up a bit but want to be sure if there is a necessary spot to do this. thanks!

Assuming your sitting all stock, tighten down the upper control arm bolts (youll find them on either side of your strut tower), tighten down your struts on top. Your springs shouldnt be squeeking, its more likely a nearbye part rubbing.

its probably a bushing. check to make sure all your bolts are torqued to specs.
