Rear end creaking
Creaking from the rear end, driver side. I can not believe I'm the only one to ever experience this issue. I've lowered the car on RSR Sport-I and have put about 15k miles on the suspension maybe 20k.
A couple thousand miles ago I would start to hear a very faint and low creak from the drivers rear side when backing into a parking spot or slowly rolling through a lot.
Over the next couple months/weeks it got worse. Now it's occurring all the time. I can only hear it when moving slowly and it happens when make the car shift it's weight in any direction.
My mechanic has taken a very good look at the entire suspension and can not pin point where the noise is coming from, he's resorted to lubing up critical areas but still hasn't found the noise.
Beginning to think it's not in the suspension maybe it's as simple as a lose chasis bolt.
Just asking any one to share their experience if they have noticed or solved anything like this. It's driving me insane.
Car has been at the shop for weeks as the mechanic finds time to troubleshoot but he's come up empty. I'll have it back soon and I'll take some videos / sound clips.
