Creaking suspension

Afternoon all,

I have the creaking suspension problem and I was wondering if someone could recommend replacement parts?

Many thanks

I've used advanced factors since I bought the car and never had any trouble with them. Fast shipping and actually pretty good with advice too. I think the main thing is that you know you're getting good quality parts from them

I normally use GSF but as with all parts, there's a real difference in cost between suppliers. Along with the old original part vs aftermarket.

I've heard of pattern lower arms being made in China, made from very thin steel and tearing. Swing arms, disks etc. aren't that expensive. I doubt you will be able to save much by going anywhere else, but you risk getting inferiour parts. Advanced factors only stock good quality stuff (or clearly label cheaper quality parts).

I searched through a few old posts regarding the same issue and several people have mentioned ACE. What does that stand for? I can't remember having come across it before.

Lift bonnet.
Look on the left for a yellow capped reservoir with markings on the cap showing a vehicle with an arrow either side of it. If you have one then Dynamic Response is fitted. Plus you will have it as an extra setting on the Terrian Response. Usually shown as a squiggly road. It does work and worth using on A and B roads Thumbs Up

Standard fit on S/C and TDV8, option on everything else (I think, could be wrong?)

Squiggly road option on a 2006? Not sure but didn't that come later, mine has no squiggly road setting?
