2bmws Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 Hi guys another little annoying niggle, when I put the car into drive it creaks in the rear also when I go over speed bumps, the rear is noisy. Im wondering whats best to diagnose this, or what is the usual suspect please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobbie Posted August 12, 2023 Report Share Posted August 12, 2023 First thing I’d look at is the front engine mount which is a fairly common item for replacement. Rubber bush may have perished giving creaking noise. As for the speed bumps, could be this again or one of the many suspension components such as lower arms or tuning forks.

The engine mount gets a work out on speed bumps too. Suspension tends to be knocks and rattles and are usually worst on broken surfaces.

Rev Ken Posted August 14, 2023 Report Share Posted August 14, 2023 When you get to my age, 'creaking in the rear' has a different meaning😅 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
