Default Audi suspension squeeks loud

I have a 1999 Audi A4 2.8 V6. The right rear shock squeaks loud when I drive. It is so sensitive that I can be outside the car and lightly push down above that area and it will squeak. I had my shocks looked at by a mechanic not too long ago before this started and he said they look fine and are not leaking. I have noticed when it is raining it doesnt happen. Is there something that can be oiled to make this stop?

same thing here and I just ended up spraying the whole area with WD40 but in the end changed both springs and shocks but in the end found it to one of the bushees under the car.

Squeaking usually is a bushing.
