Citigo Rear Suspension Creaks

Featured Replies

Hi,

My wife has a 2015 Citigo Greentech and after 28K has developed a creaking on the rear suspension at low speed but cannot be heard once moving.I have replaced the shockers knowing the noise was coming from them but this did not cure the problem.I subsequently have discovered that the noise is coming from the rubber cone that is inside the top of the offside shocker.I have replaced this part and the noise disappears however after less than a weeks driving the noise re-appears.I also own a VW Bluemotion with 104K on the clock and it also has the same problem on the offside.I now don't know where to go as to why the noise is re-appearing and was wondering if anyone else has had the same issue and if it has been resolved. 

the issue you describe are more related to bushes that componants,

 

a dry door hinge creeks at slow speed and not at all when moved fast..

I thought it was the bushes but when you remove the rubber cone inside the top of the shocker sleeve you can make it creak.I have also fitted new top shocker bushes but they have not stopped the noise.Fitting a new rubber cone should have solved the issue but it hasn't.I am not prepared to spend to have the suspension bushes replaced.
