Technical Creaking noise from back corner?

[jackgoughblah]

Hi All,

I have a creaking noise, very loud, coming from what seems like the rear on the passenger side of the car. I was wondering if anyone has any idea what this could be as it was happening on stock suspension and now I'm on coil overs and it still does it.

It seems to mainly happen when the body is "twisted" like when one half of the GP goes over an speed bump and the other doesn't it will make the creaking noise.

Thanks in advance.

A sound clip would help

It's most likely the door locks.

I wrapped insulating tape round the bar on the part connected to the car body (not the door)

Is this true for the 3 door models?

Yes.

I get a sharp creek (almost a crack sound) from the rear when the car is subject to torsion. I put it down to the trim moving as the body flexes.

I get a sqeek every so often from rear passangers side,just spray GT 85 on suspension and it goes away
