Suspension creekcoming from the rear????
My car has developed a very distinct "creek" coming from the rear suspension.
It is quite audible when the windows are down. When I launch from a stop, or really anytime I shift the weight of the car around at low (parking lot) speeds I hear a "creeking noise.) Sounds like it's coming from the passenger rear of the car.
I suspect a sway bar bushing or something.
I took it to the dealer, and wouldn't you know... "CANNOT REPLICATE NOISE".
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
It is rather embarassing to have my shiney new car creeking all over town.

I took delivery on August 8 '03 ( 3/2 weeks ago). It rolled off the truck that morning and hadn't been inventoried yet. Two days later the drivers side rear strut ( I think) started to creek. It does it when I get in the car. It doesn't do it all the time and I don't notice it when I'm driving.
I have the same issue, I need to take mine in for a few other things. I'll make sure I point this out to them. I get to drive the car while the tech sits in the pasenger seat so I can make sure it makes the sound.
I had the same issue when I got my Z... It was a loose clip in the Hatch. The way they found it was one guy drove the car, and another tech layed in the back, and pin pointed the sound...
Now my car is in again today. This time, my driver side window is loose.... It shakes when I hit bumps... Have that clicking noise from the back left of the car, and they will fix my seatbelt.....

I have the same suspension creeking sound and it is difinitely not coming from the hatch. It is coming from somewhere in the mid to rear suspension. I had the car checked today but they could not find the problem. The creeking noise is very noticeable when shifting gears, accelerating or braking. I always hear it when there is a weight transfer from front to rear or vise versa.
If anyone knows where the noise is coming from, please post.
Thanks!!!
