Re: Groaning and creaking rear
I have some kind of funny sounds when the handbrake is lightly pulled and there is some play in it. For example when I park it in my garage and I start moving stuff around in the backseats etc

Re: Groaning and creaking rear
Sounds very much like the rear pads slipping on the disc when the handbrake is not pulled on hard enough. You will get a similar noise if you release the handbrake slowly on a hill and allow the car to roll slightly.Zanic L3 wrote:I have some kind of funny sounds when the handbrake is lightly pulled and there is some play in it.

Groaning and creaking when turning the wheel is.normally a broken front spring and / or top mount bearingVaatu wrote:

If the noises are from the rear, it could be a broken rear spring or a worn bush.
It could also be a rear brake binding.

I'd say you don't have the handbrake pulled up enough. Pull it up more and the noises will probably go.
