creaking from suspsension when the car is turned off

Hi,

I have a just bought a 2010 RRS. When I get home and turn the car off the suspension drops a little which I believe is normal but there is a bit of creaking... is that what everyone experiences?

I also have a slightly odd sensation through the steering wheel when driving... it's not a vibration exactly it is far more subtle than that... it feels more like a the power steering assistance is ever so slightly varying all the time.

Both of these things are probably usual but as I've never driven one of these for an extended period before I thought I'd better check... It's going in for a geometry check tomorrow anyway which may sort it as it only recently had some new front arms fitted and I'm not sure if the geometry was checked properly then.

Thanks a lot,
Adam

The suspension creak is more than likely because the car has been sat for awhile before you bought it. It should ease off after a few days/weeks if it doesn't it will more than likely be the sway bar bushes.
The steering wheel is harder to diagnose but I would start by getting your tracking checked and wheels balanced.
