Rear Squicking noise....

I thought it was shocks or bushings, but it's happening when i'm driving on perfectly straight road with no bumps.

I heard about hatch squicking, could this be it? How do i fix/check it?

It's like a mouse every time i drive, it kind of stops after 30/60 min of driving.

Thanks

I believe you can adjust the latch so that it holds the top hatch done lower to the car. It will make it harder to shut, but the noise should go away. I don't remember exactly, but if you search you'll find the info you want. I've read it before, just don't remember everything I read exactly.

I have the same damn problem. It sounds like a mouse and my buddy that was driving right next to me, says he can hear it too. What can this be? Inside and outside all you can hear is this squick every 2 seconds.

I do have that worn out bushing clunking, but this is not that sound. Could it be the Hatch, springs or shocks? I have tokico illuminas on stock springs.
