chooch Member 256 Member For: 21y 4m 15d Location: Adelaide Posted 11/12/06 01:12 PM Share Posted 11/12/06 01:12 PM you might be confusing the suspension rattle for something in the brakes. All mine was a metal piece, part of a braket on the brake calliper (can't remember the actual name), anyway it had just become slightly loose so Ford glued it back on, and now the noise is gone.I reckon the creeking thing will go away once the suspension settles.

Got same problem again in the new one.

At the moment im awaiting on a new set of rear shocks. The best way to get to the bottom of this is take it to an indapendant mechanic get him to find the problem get a report off him and wave the report under the service guys at ford's nose Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/31051-suspension-noise-rattle-over-bumps/#findComment-475562 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm constantly taking mine back but I have to give it credit though...it's always been minor stuff....But they have always fixed it including new brake discs and pads on my premium brake package.
