    Default creaking sound at the rear wheels

    I own a vp berlina and it has fe2 springs in it and at the back it makes a creaking sound when i turn a corner, usually it makes that sound when i turn right. i have been told that they can sometimes fall out but when i checked they didnt fall out, this has happened ever since I got my windows tinted haha but can anyone help me with this?

    maybe the rear parcel shelf is flexing when turning a corner creating noise?

    I'd be looking at the pan hard rod bushes or the trailing arm bushes. Also can be the exhaust "O" rubber busted letting the mufflers move around a bit.

    like everyone is advising you with checking panhard rod and rubbers etc,etc also check your shock absorber rubbers especially the right hand one.Also very long shot,has your car been in to a panel beaters shop recently for any kind of rear end repair?

    the shunt may of been heavy enough to knock something about in the rear end.
