Default squeaky front shock

I have a squeaky front shock (Fox Forx Float 80RL). The shock is a 2003 version and has been ridden for 1 season. The squeak occurs on the rebound of the shock only. Is present with different stiffness settings. The shock seems to work correctly (e.g. smooth travel, etc.).

Is this something to worry about? Can it be fixed or to I just have to live this it?

I've got the same problem on mine, it's been doing it for about a year. Sorry it doesn't help you much but I'd like to see if anyone has any answers.
