Right I've now done 300 miles since doing this "fix" and it appears to have worked

Lucky, which fix did you do - the syringe into the Bushes or just the WD 40 Spray?

Hi, I used 3 in One oil spray. It comes with a small red tube like WD40. Firstly I jacked the car up and removed the wheel. Then with some needle nose pliers I managed to pull the protective rubber cover back (upper and lower hub bushes) and spray onto the bush.

I have a horrendous squeak/creak from both sides of mine I think coinciding with weather warming up. It squeaks terribly if you bounce on the rear door sill at rest and also when driving, mostly from the rear but also on parking up when the suspension settles there is the most awful creak. I have sprayed all with copper grease then with silicon grease a week later and also filled the ball joint covers with WD40 til is squirted back out at high pressure (used a 20ml syringe and 20G 1" needle if anyone is interested!) all to no avail, the question is does anyone know a good way to identify which bushes or ball joints are to blame as will replace them myself but dont want the car out of action for too long so want to order the bits first. Unless someone can tell me if any of the rear bushes never need replaced and that to do all possible suspects is economic???

Handbrake cable is around £30 per side, not too difficult to do
