My 05' CC LE has a funky squeak to it that sounds like it might be an exhaust hanger or something similar. I have heard rumors of a TSB on this.
Does anyone have more info?

I got an 05 SE KC and get a sqeak as well. It is slowly going away the more miles I am getting. Im 95% sure it is the leaf springs flexing. get in the bed of ur truck and shake it side to side and see if you hear the same squeak.

Been There! Mine sounds as if it coming from upfront. I have 11k on mine it it has not gone away.

I heard of this before, but not Frontier specific. Buddy of mine was going insane because of squeaking in the front end. He told me he figured it out awhile ago but its been so long I cannot remeber exactly. He said something about mud that got stuck somewhere and ruined something small he had to replace. Sorry Im so vague I dont really know. But if you have been offroading it could be the source.

Had the same problem. It's been mentioned on here a few times. I sprayed white lithium grease on the leaf spring brackets and the noise seemed to go away. I'm sure it's only a temporary fix, but easier than taking it to the dealership. My previous Mazda truck did the same thing and that's all the dealer did to fix that one too. Not sure about a TSB on it.

That's what I did. Squeak was driving me nutts everytime I got in and out of the truck.
