I’m after a bit of advice & guidance here people - my 2017 300 ST (with 25000 miles) has started creaking from the rear suspension when driving. The strange thing is that when going over speed bumps (slowly of course 🤪) and “general” undulations in the road the suspension is quiet, however when driving over literally a very minor bump in the road the rear suspension creaks like mad?? I can’t decide which side it is - I think it’s the passenger side but not 100% - it also doesn’t make any difference if someone is sat in the back or not 🤔😖 Anyone else had this annoying issue - if so how did you cure it? TIA 👍

Same on my 16 reg fr, been creaking since I bought it at 21k miles (on 37k now). It’s not getting any worse. My solution so far has been to turn the radio up 🤣

Had mine checked a couple of times and was told it was normal

Are you sure it's suspension? Mine makes a lot of creaks and groans from all the outer doors seals, particularly the felty ones at the top edge. Quick whizz round with Gummipfleger and it's nice and quite again.

I've changed to "baby powder" for my door seals, super quiet now.

Hi R.Bot - it’s defo from suspension as already resolved noisy door seals but thanks for the advice 👍
