Squeaks and rattles driving me nuts! 200

I just got my 240 a few months ago and I'm happy with it, except that I think the ride is pretty hard, and the resultant squeaks and rattles that come through the dash when going over bumps is driving me crazy. I went to the mechanic almost sure that he would find something wrong with the suspension, but he said everything's okay, and that the deep frost of winter tends to make the ride harder because of the thick oil in the oil filled shocks. So what can I do about the dash squeaks? I remember in the 70's that the American car makers used to spray with a silicone lubricant that would wear away in 3 weeks (long enough to get you out of the dealership). Anybody have any tips how to handle it? Thanks, Fred
