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.

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

When mine was squeaking it was the rear knuckle bushes, I replaced top and bottom, the bottoms were seized. No more squeaking 2012 TDV8 Autobiography Baltic Blue
