Creaking over speedbjmps

What would be the likely cause for creaking over speed bumps. I bought the car yesterday and notice this noise and wondered if its a simple and quick fix 2012 4.4 tdv8 westminster

Mine used to creak and whilst I’m no expert on it, I assumed it was the rubbers in the bushes creaking. I used to drive up a grass slope at an angle then reverse off, to articulate the suspension, then it would be fine for months.

Yours may have been sat in the same place for a while….

Might not be that, but I’d see how it goes over the next few weeks etc and if it’s still doing it investigate further.

Others may have a more specific fix….

Could be any one or more of the many suspension bushes and joints - inspect and replace as necessary. 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

Find some subtle speed bumps and drive over them at a decent speed, you have tons of suspension travel and it's been driven very sedately... you need to get the suspension working as it should..... There may or course be bushes warn but this is free and well worth a try... Pete

I know someone who had this with an old shape RRS that he bought.

New bushes on some of the suspension components sorted it.
