nah its probably just the tailgate rubbers.. common prob and sounds like the back of the car is about to fall apart.

****just noticed that u have already changed the rubbers. tops and bottoms????***** disregard.

i bet its ur rear brakes....... :ffs:

[tam30560]

the rear springs are new but are self adjusting the ride is brick hard so i dont know if this is the causeof all the noise

[mad welshman]

as i said.....strip the back wheels off and have a look at ur brakes. i bet this is where the noise is comming from.

Baz, he has different brakes to you. ;)

You have checked the tool kit and everything around the spare wheel is tight ?

o, yes..........he hasn't got the big stoppers. hee hee

still think is the bracks tho martyn, what do u think?

Not sure, was convinced it would be tailgate rubbers but as he says has done these already.

Could be a loose suspension point or similar. Always hard to diagnose noises over the internet
