w203 rear suspenion creaks

[j.mannion3@ntlw]

hi,
I have a w203 c220 cdi saloon 51 plate. Recently I have been hearing squeaks and creaks from the rear n/s suspension when going over even the smallest of bumps. Is there any part of the suspension that can be greased or oiled or is it a symptom of a more serious problem?
I can't find a Haynes type manual for this model, I tried a cd from fleabay but couldn't get it to run. Anyone any suggestions where I could buy one?

Cheers.

Could be a broken rear spring or simply a worn or dry suspension bush. Best get the rear n/s wheel off and have a look. Make sure the car is well supported if you are going stick your head into the wheel arch for a closer look.

my car has a slight squeak and i need to replace inner ball joints and the bushes. . .

so could be that?

Regular stuff for sqeaking is the press-in bush on the rear hub carrier. Number 20 on the pic. £32.00 inc vat.
Or number 80 on the pic that comes pressed in with no 70 for £53.00 inc vat.
