micra k12 rear creaking sound - greg_k12
Hi all,

I recently purchased a Micra K12 Sport+ and love it except one niggling prob. There is a creaking sound from the rear on bends and some bumps at lower speeds like metal rubbing metal or plastic. Can anyone give me any ideas what it might be causing this before i go back to the dealer?

It almost sounds like the bootlid doesn't fit properly but this seems to be ok. I have been told it could be the bolts in the rear subframe cos on early models these were to long and had to be changed.

Any help would be much appreciated

Cheers

Greg

It may not be serious. My k12 made a similar sound, it was the parcel shelf jumping up and down. Have someone press it down whilst you drive. Cured with self adhesive velcro. Also the rear seat back can tap against their stops making a similar sound - same cure.
