Creaking rear corner on speed bumps
Lots of speed bumps around here. Not always but far more often than not I get a creaking noise from a rear corner (sounds to me like suspension area) when going over speed bumps. Doesn't appear to make any difference whether there is 1 person and no luggage or the car is full. Possibly more frequent when first driven, rather than at the end of a longer trip.
I've read about the nosiy suspension problems for Golfs in general but the recordings I've listened to are referred to as like rolling logs and don't sound anything like a creak. Anyone else had a creaking rear?

I have heard of the rear dampers becoming noisy, if you private message me your REG number I can look up to see if there are any TPI’s for this.

There is nothing on my offline TPI's and my online system has been down for weeks, it says "call support" but they have taken the phone off the hook.
