Watch min 4.14 Buy a "silicon lubricant" and spray at that area of the absorber, as shown in the video.
Mine city 2013. After spraying, the squeaks become less audible. And to access the absorber, just turn steering wheel all the way left / right. No need to jack up car.
"Silicon lubricant" can get less than rm20, ace hardware, Mr DIY, etc.

Just changed the stabilizer bar bushes at SC and the creaking is gone. It seems this is a common problem for this model City.
I was also STRONGLY ADVISED not to lubricate these bushes or absorber mount and othert parts tht were designed to function dry. It seems they have seen quite a few customers come after using AT205 and other simillar products, where the rubber part degrades terribly after some time and becomes useless. Some others had corrosion and surface damage on the metal parts and painted surface.
Just be careful and be warned if anyone thinking of trying that stuff out.
How much is it? How many quantity did u change? Got photo of your old one?
