Groaning noise from suspension

The car is making a groaning noise when braking or going over bumps in the road.

The car just went in for its second service and we asked them to check it and they said they could find nothing wrong.

Anyone else had this problem or have any ideas as to what it could be?

Thanks.

Could be a faulty anti-roll bar end link of the side its coming from. Relatively cheap fix!

Well the cars under warranty so whatever it is VW will pay for it but they say there is nothing wrong!

An absolute MUST! Also maybe get they to change the front-rear bushes for the Seat Ibiza Cupra ones, if they are starting to tear - if they complain just say that you want this to avoid VW's product wasting your time - you never know it might just work!!
