morgey Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 One of the bushes, anti roll bar or wishbone at a guess? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jordan walker Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I have started getting the same noise ever since i fitted my new coilovers my guess is the top mounts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Is it mainly when your at low speed? Topmounts can creak on them. Worth greasing them to death before fitting them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jordan walker Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Yeah like if i slow down to go up my girlfriends farm when i turn up the lane the pot hole kick fuck out of my car thats when it does it most Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Addymk2 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I had a creaking when the rear strut brace worked itself loose, might be worth a look! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spoon_tuned Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 right guys few of you have said top mounts which is a really good shout..i'll take suspension off grease the top mount and put it back on see if it makes a difference plus i just had my MOT and the guy said come here have a look at this so i did and where the wishbone is bolted to the chasis the bolt is slightly loose and wont tighten anymore without getting looser first so that could be an issue to thanks again lads youve been a great help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
