Hi, hopefully someone can help.
I have a twingo rs and last week I changed the alloys. I've had no problems, or any moans and groans from the suspension all round in the last year and a half of ownership.
However, since changing the alloys the left rear has developed a loud creaking sound. Today I've removed the rear seats and parcel shelf to remove the other annoying rattles so I could hear the creaking clearer. It sounds as if it is inside which leads me to believe it could be the top mount?
I'm guessing I've disturbed something when removing the rear wheels as they were both a struggle to remove (haven't been off in a while). I've removed the rear trim to access the top mount but visibly of what you can see it looks fine. I have no idea with fault finding in regards to suspension so just hoping someone can suggest whether it is the top mount, any other things to check etc. Cheers, Mark
