Power-take up creak...

Recommended Posts

Hmm, I don't think anything is loose to the touch, but I can hear a fairly-consistent creak from the rear-end of my k-series car when pulling gently away.

 

It's not a clear 'click' or clunk as would happen if a bush was worn, but I wonder if it is a sign of something going that way.

 

Anyone had anything similar? It sounds like something tightening up under the application of torque. I'm guessing that braking unloads the torque - but probably does it while the car is still travelling too fast to hear it.

 

Driveshaft boots etc remain in good condition and the recent mot didn't show any hub-bearing play for instance (I participate fully in the mots and use the time on the ramp to have a good go at finding loose bits).
