I have noticed a noise that sounds like it is coming from the back drivers side of the car. When I get off from stationary or when turning a corner at slowish speeds I can a creaking noise that sounds like its coming from the suspension or the mounts or somewhere in that region.
I know its hard to diagnose any problems without hearing it etc but I was just wondering if there are any common problems that can occur around that area.
I have a feeling its bushes so going to look into poly bushes asap.

springs around the rubber spring seat area, had this before and it was a broken spring at the lowest point.
can also just be dry rubber try lubricating all the rubber bits in that area to see if it makes a difference

can also try making a straw size hole in any rubber boots if its ball joints ect and fire some oil in to shut it up if thats what it is but its only a temporary fix.

My rear top mounts used to creak when I first set off in the mornings, until I replaced them.
