Yep... Unless you take the springs all apart and lubricate them. What's the difference? Doesn't bother me.

I had that problem also. I put some WD-40 type oil on the springs. Bought some spring covers. Added some heavy weight oil to the absorbant part of the covers. No more squeaks. Did not take the springs apart.
