its working im juts telling you a stiffer suspention will bring out squeeks and sometimes thoses squeeks could be something like a worn ball joint or bushings binding. but i doubt thats what it is cause your car is pretty new and low milage

My rear shock was clunking to when I went over bumps and what not. I took out the shock tested it and it seemed fine. I put a newish oem shock in and the clunking went away.

Point of the story... I dunno...

Just get new shocks.

I've been having a problem since I installed my JIC coilovers. It squeaks like a bitch in the rear on SMOOTH roads. It's a freaking bushing. It doesn't do it when I have the stock shocks/springs on it. Just haven't gotten around to fixing it.

I sent both of the shocks to JIC and they were in great shape. Just saying it doesn't have to be a shock. 05 with 35k miles btw and after reinstall the coilovers for the 47th time, the noise went away for a few months after we had the car settle (bouncing aroudn in the trunk) before tightening everything up in the rear. It's back though.
