Hey guys :p
On the way home from work earlier I noticed a creak coming from the rear of the car, I have done a search and Haven't come up with much. It happens when I go over bumps or swerve sharply (I was just trying to find out when it happened:p) Most common seems to be the driveshafts making a noise and it sounding like it's coming from the back. But i'm 98% sure this is actually coming from the back as it happens when I reverse onto my drive. One wheel goes over the edge off the drive and *creak* then second rear wheel and *creak.*
Now the only way I can describe the noise is.. When you park on a hill and put your handbrake on, but not on quite enough and you get in the car and the handbreak creaks. It sounds like short sharp bursts of that. I can't feel any resistance from the handbrake, and yes.. It is off :P
Any suggestions? As the car is being taken to bits on the weekend anyway so anything to check would be grateful! :y:
Cheers
Chris
