Just bought as in brand new? Should be covered under warranty. Make them fix it.

I had an XJ that squeeked up front, front drive shaft was replaced under warranty.

Wow, only 120 miles? With miles that low, I would say nothing is wrong with it. Just b/c it has a sqeak means nothing. It could be something simple like a sway bar bushing.

When does it do it? All the time or when you hit bumps and stuff?

120,000k is alot, so it could be many things.
