Hey All...

Slight problem my car seems to be making a creaking noise from the left hand side of the vechile. This only seems to happen when the car has really slowed down and is almost at a hault. For example; when approaching a junction or a roundabout. It doesn't affect the performance of the car but it's pretty annoying and would like to get it sorted!

Cheers

have you had your coilies fitted? when i fitted mine one of my rear shocks started creaking at slow speeds, sent it back as i thought it was faulty, and the new ones seem to be fine, push down on the corner where it is creaking, if it creaks while you are pushing it down, make sure everything is tight if not maybe the shock might be faulty

Could just be a slightly binding brake. Just take the pads out of the calipers and give them and the calipers a good clean up and use copper grease on the sliders.
