Squeaking Z-axis on new machine?

Hi! Ive been printing successfully for the past few days but I just started hearing a short squeaky sound every time the z-axis steps. It is definitely only coming from the right sided z-axis.

Any advice? seems like it needs some lube or something? TYIA!

Many say no lube is needed on the Z screws. I lube mine with lithium grease. A tad messy but it never squeaks!
