Mine creaks like a galleon in a stiff breeze... has been suggested that it might be the rear door seals rubbing
That said, the suspension is as polybushed as it can be

It was definately the pas side door area when I was in it. Silicon spray around the door rubbers?

Will give that a go might also stop them sticking when damp...

I was considering that too, RS. But prying should reveal faulty donuts 

As I found a problem I.e. The leaking shocks I'll address this first 

Keep us updated mate 

Hi mate. Just thought I'd let you know that I had the rear axle bushes replaced and the handling has improved noticeably.

Nice one mate. Has the creaking gone too?

In the short mileage that I've driven it since, I would say so yes.

Brilliant.... axle bushes.... are we still talking about the donut bushes that fit between the body and subframe?
