Noises from the rear

(1/2) > >>

K03MK5:
Starting to hear creaking noises from the rear while coming to a stop driving at slow speeds.  Any suggestions?

GreigC:
I have my car booked in next week for the same noises as yourself. The rear control arm bushes are tired on my car so we suspect this is the issue. So I’m getting the rear control arm bushes replaced, ARB bushes and drop links at the same time. Hope this helps.

TheBALDpuma:
Mine is making the same noises too, was going to replace the ARB bushes and the drop links - hasn't looked at the control arms so will look at those too now!!

GreigC:
Just had my rear control arms replaced with new bushes already fitted, ARB bushes and drop links and its still doing it! :doh: I’ll need to look further into it…

TheBALDpuma:
GreigC - Do you mind if I ask you home much that lot cost?  I have been planning to do the work myself but my time keeps getting taken up with other jobs, so thinking I might book it in.

I know it hasn;t fixed your problem so it might not fix mine, but the state of the ARB bushes in particular they need doing anyway!
