Megan to BC racing coilovers = now odd squeak

[Andrew]

As the title states I am now running BC racing coilovers type BR in comparison from my old set of Megans. Ever since i switched coils over there has been a lot of squeaking lately. i am not sure if it is the coilovers itself or the rear sway? it may be loose squeaking or something, but i have checked and there seem to be no problems. the BC racing coils are somewhat brand new-used. i picked them up from another member with only 1,500 miles on them, so i am a bit confused. any input is gladly appreciated.

My friend has a TEIN basics on his car and his does the same thing.. I remember him saying he knows what it is, i'll ask him and let you know.. Maybe it's similar if not the same thing.

He said it was a dust cover rubbing against something.. Maybe that's it?

well thank you sir for your input. today i went under and checked everything out. it looks like all the nuts and bolts are tightened down, but the preload on the jiggles when i move it by hand on the passenger rear side so that might be it. i will go under again another day and check out the dust boot option. thanks for help

Yea it'd be best to have another person shaking the car or something while you can look and try and pinpoint where it's coming from. Idk, I hate squeaks so I feel you haha.
