Hi All.
Looking for some advice with an odd problem I'm having with my car, 2000 S3 with 44K on the clock. Whenever I start off in the morning, or home from work the I don't hear any noises with the suspension at all, even if I'm going over speed bumps. At some point into the journey though a loud creaking noise appears from underneath the car (trust me I'm not really heavy and it isn't the seat!) which is induced by any body movement. In particular, when the front wheels go over a speed bump (on either wheel, makes no difference) it is very noticable. I don't however hear any noise when the rear wheels go over the hump?
I am hoping it is something like the shocks which may have gone, unusual for the mileage but possible. Has anyone had similar issues or have any thoughts?
Cheers
