Hello again, my car seems to have many problems with it!
I have noticed now that there is a creaking/knocking noise present when there is more than 1 person in the car. It seems to be coming from the back right hand side of the car and is more noticable when accelerating. The noise dissapears when i reach speeds above 35mph.
I have rocked the car with weight in it when it was still, and i could not hear anything. I am not sure what it is but it is quite loud and sounds quite ominous.Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

i'd say check the exaust, mine was knocking on the rear axel, turned the clamp round and fixed the knocking noise. Theres also an outside chance the shocker has gone and the excess travel is cauing it to bang on the stops.

Re: Suspicious creaking/knocking noise :(
I checked the exhaust and it is attached at the bottom so it can move up but not any further down than this attachment. I will try and secure it more tightly. However i do not think it is this as the noise is not so much a tapping or a knocking noise but more of a creaking like when you shut an old door or something.
There is also another thing which has started to happen now. When i take off in the car after not using it for the night the car seems to go up and then dipp as if i were going over something on the ground. I have checked this and i am not going over anything but the car definately dipps and the suspension goes down briefly, the car then drives normally after this initial dip. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?
