Got a slight problem with my 2001 206 GLX, Before it's MOT last month it had a creaking noise from the front of the car from both side's. Had the MOT done of which it failed on-
.Offside front suspention arm has excessive play in a ball joint
.Nearside front droplink anti-roll bar has excessive play in a ball joint
.Offside frount droplink anti-roll bar has excessive play in a ball joint
all this was replaced, it passed it's mot and the creaking went however a week or so later it came back.. it's only when going under 40mph that you can hear it/ going over speed bumps or in rough terrain ect.. (I live in the country so it's fairly irritating but it really does not sound healthy at all.
Just wondering if anyone could enlighten me on what the problem could be so i can see if there is a way to get it repaired cheaper than taking it back to the garage

Take it back to the garage and ask them to have a look. Get a quote for what needs to be done, then phone around and you might be able to get it done cheaper else where

kind regards
