if its a squeek when going over slowly over speedbumps etc. It will be the bumpstops on the front suspension
Part 11 in pic Want hurt to jack the car up as high as you can to expose it and clean it up with a rag then use plenty of copper grease on the top surface that rubs against the suspension plate. Also clean the suspension mount underside where it rubs. Did that and also used some GT86 (water repellent, lubricant) to oil up the inside part as best as it can be without removing. Did this a while back since then no noises at all and it was a right old squeek

I cant say I noticed on mine driveway slopes in multiple directions so its always sitting on a funny angle. And with my small 120kg frame 95% in the car on my own I doubt the suspension ever sits level
The few times I've looked at it on near level ground it looks pretty much identical to me on both sites. Only thing is to measure it and see as I recall this alteration for LHD cars being mentioned before
