Having had a creeking noise coming from the front r/h side of my Panda Dynamic(2009) I decided to replace the droplinks as they were very easy to waggle about. Three days ago I fitted Meyle Hd units,totally different from those removed and expected to hear no further noise,oh not to be, in fact was more apparent!! Whats the next step,top mounts,only occurs on rough surfaces or on and of the throttle. I live in Spain so dont have trouble with rusty springs or for that matter any rusty parts under the car! Suspension handles bumps very well so not in need of replacement,any ideas please.

Maybe it's the spring or the damper.....you need to get into a pit whilst a fat bloke bounces on the front wing - see if you can pinpoint.
 
Sometimes, having someone bounce the car and produce the squeak while you spray something like WD40 on each joint/bush, one at a time.

The spray should, when you hit the right point, alter the pitch of the squeak, pinpointing the problem.
