+1 - this is why I think it is down to the body flexing as it is when the car is being 'twisted' as such - speed humps etc also make it creak.

I am hoping to spend some time this weekend trying to sort it (in between tiling the kitchen ) as it is driving me nuts. Now also got a squeek in the drivers seat belt that creaks as the belt retracts in and out a little as you go over bumps - because it is right behind my ear, that's also annoying me
