#1: Rear end creeking Author: 206gti_chris, Location: SussexPosted: Sun Aug 11, 2013 1:39 pm ---- Got the old rear end creek, originally thought it was the boot but it definitely isnt, seen a few things about rear axle bearing? ive looked underneath the rear and all the bushes look old and dry
whats worth replacing?

#4: Re: Rear end creeking Author: 206gti_chris, Location: SussexPosted: Mon Aug 12, 2013 4:44 pm ---- turns out once i removed the rusted old spare wheel and bracket, and re-ajusted the boot lock position the creek and squeaks stopped.. MAJOR cheap fix
#5: Re: Rear end creeking Author: 206gti_chris, Location: SussexPosted: Sun Aug 18, 2013 2:32 pm ---- Nope... still creeking lasted 1 day then all the creeking again no idea what causes it but it only disapeers when i ajust the boot latch so you have to literally force the boot shut otherwise a light shut wont work.......... Anyone got an answer? only i would use the SEARCH but its absolute shi-t type in boot noise 1800 matches found not one post relevant to a boot.................

Jack the car, put on axle sttands and push pull with hands at 12 / 6 o'clock then 9 / 3 o'clock and push, pull, twist and try to see whjere the play is. Is it in the arm bearing or the hub.
