hey guys,

in the past wk or so, my rear suspension has developed a pretty loud creaking noise.

after some inspecting, i found that the rubber boot surrounding the shock absorber is pretty much shredded. moreso on one side than the other. it also seems to not creak when i drive in the rain. would it be my shock absorbers?

it mainly happens whilst going over bumps. like when entering a drive way, its a slow squeak.

is there something that i can lube up my shock absorbers with? just to eliminate if thats what the cause.

if anyone else has a different idea of what it could be then pls post to me.

thanks guys

Callum

hey mate join the club,i dont know what's wrong with your shocks or springs...

i got a same problem as you facing,i took my car to the pedders in prospect area in adelaide..anyways they checked and found my cars spring not sitting right and rubbing against the body and making noise on every hump and bump...

so try to book with some suspension workshop or pedders and they will find the source of these noises...hope its helps.

A creaking noise would generally be a stuffed bush - there is one at the end of each suspension arm. much as I hate suggesting it, pedders could help identify the stuffed bush (then get it fixed elsewhere :ermm:)

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
