unfortunately it snowed like, a lot last night, meaning i can't go and fix it and test it b/c i my winter tires don't come until tomorrow.

hey jeff i actually had bc coilover on my altima coupe and i got the same sound your describing. everytime it rained or snowed i would get the sound. i went to a shop and they put wd-40. they turned the wheel so they could spary inside i guess the coilovers itself? not really sure where they sprayed. i know some people might tell you its a bad idea but it got rid of the sound for me. and i had no problems after that. (if anyone goes this route just make sure it doesnt get anywhere by the brakes i just remember the guy telling me that if i do it on my own.)
