My car's just coming up to 12 months old and I've noticed that the suspension has started to creak quite badly while low-speed maneuvering in access mode. It's seems to be fine at any other height setting.

Annoyingly I need to use access mode almost every time I drive, in order to get it in and out of my garage.

Anyway, I'm finally booked in to get the wind noise looked at in a couple of weeks, so I'll see what they say then, but in the meantime I just thought I'd see if anyone else has experienced this? 2023 P440e Dynamic SE

Nothing on mine. Quiet as a mouse 😉

UPDATE: This issue seems to have resolved itself, which is a bit odd but I'm not complaining. 2023 P440e Dynamic SE

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the creaking has now returned.

I've got it booked in to be looked at. 2023 P440e Dynamic SE

Is it definitely suspension squeak and not tyre squeak? Dropping to access height might change the geometry slightly which could lead to the contact patch not being quite right to keep the tyres happy. When back up to normal height, the geometry is correct and the tyres happy once again.

Just a thought. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm pretty sure it's suspension related. Rocking the car when it's stationary gives the same creaking noise. 2023 P440e Dynamic SE

On older RRS, that creaking when being rocked would be an indication of a worn hub bush. I'd be amazed if that were the case on a newish car, however. But it's not impossible, I guess. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders

Indeed, it could well be something like, perhaps a defective part.

I'll report back once it's checked over. 2023 P440e Dynamic SE

I get that too, always at low speed when coming out of or into tight parking spaces. not sure if it is the brakes or suspension or a bit of both. Either way, its on the list of things for Listers to look at. 2023 D350 FIRST EDITION, SANTORINI WITH CLOUD/EBONY

I can hear mine creaking if I rock the car from side to side, so it’s not the brakes on mine. It’s due to be looked at on Thursday. 2023 P440e Dynamic SE
