How many miles has your car done? And have you looked at the bushes to see if they are looking dodgy? After several years of MOT advisories and an increasing tendency to "bang" into potholes, I did mine and discovered that one had completely delaminated...
It's worth removing the plastic cover that's mostly hiding it, because otherwise it's very difficult to see it - hence advisories for what turned out to be a completely failed part!

It’s done 111k. I’ve just been into our local dealer and typically it was silent when jumping up and down on it. He sprayed some lube on it and that seemed to cure it but as I was nearly home it started doing it again! I’ll try and get some pics as it looks like it’s squeezing out from the mounting but certainly not what I would call perished!

When it's OK the outer part of the rubber shouldn't be protruding at all, so it looks like it needs replacing to me. Here's a photo of the completed install of one of mine

Yes it doesn’t look good and after a bit more digging, I’m wondering if the body of the bush is moving in the arm causing the squeak. Most of the videos I’ve seen have just shown the bush collapsed. Volvo dealer has quoted £350 to supply and fit both replacements so I’m going to let them get on with it as I’m too old to be faffing about under the car these days.
