Squeek over bumps

I have recently noticed a squeeking sound when going over speed bumps on my B7 avant. The squeeking sound only comes from the drivers side.
Anybody had a similar issue?

Are any of the dampers showing signs of leaking? Easy to spot (with the wheels off) if they are.

I will get it up on a ramp on weekend.
I thought the DRC leaking was more to do with knocking rather than squeeking.

I had the same noise observed and it turned out to be the control arms bushing cracked and needed replacement.
