squeaking noise over speed bumps

Hi

2014 Fiesta Titanium (not my Focus)

I understand that this noise can be cured by spraying suspension bushes - does anyone know how many bushes I should be attacking with the spray? Got to honest, I'm not sure if the noise is from the front or rear.

And are they easily accessible by crawling underneath the car, or do I need to access any of them from the gap between the wheel and the wheel arch?

Thank you.

(PS  I did do a forum search but couldn't find the answer)

    I know it's a Fiesta, not a Focus, but this may (or may not!) help...

    It's almost certainly the front anti roll bar bushes and there are two.   Very common problem on Fiestas.

    Thank you, Bob. That sounds like the first thing for me to aim for. What I love about silicone spray is that it doesn't matter if you inadvertently spray the wrong thing!

    My pleasure Al.   I've had this happen on two Fiestas so I'm pretty confident that's what it is.
