Rear Passenger Creak/Squeaking
Hi guys, I know there has been many creaking issues with the CL and most of it has been to the front passenger or driver ball joint issue. Well I was listening to mine on the driver rear. The squeak is so annoying I had one of my Indy's check a ball joint for the rear and he told me there are no ball joints in the back. I read all over it was a ball joint but most of al the squeak issues on this forum were front end not back. anyone had this issue that can chime in? Thanks in advance.

Check your rear sub frame bushings. When they collapse the car can make the noise you described.

any idea on the cost of that? parts and labor? It rained here for a day and the noise went away in the rain but slowly crept back up as it got hotter. it's annoying as heck.
