Creaking from rear

Featured Replies

Guys

Noticed on the tank that when going round corners there is a creaking nise coming from the rear of the car. I've had similar noises with other cars and they have been sorted by having the suspenion re-torqued.

Am I right in thinking this is the same problem?

Any is it easy to do myself?

Ta.

Never heard of that one before, and was thinking it's probably a dry bush. In which case the cure is to put a few drops of brake fluid (see there is a use for old brake fluid) on one bush at a time until the noise goes away.

I have a creaking from the rear when going over bumps or rough road since I bought the car. Two mechanics said it's probably the window system. So it might be the bushes after all? Where are they located, where should I look?

Here is a picture of the rear beam removed from the car, the bushes are at furthest point from brake disks. This should help you when you look underneath :thumbup:
