Ok just when I press on the gas and start to go from a stop i get a creak from the rear of my car. Should I look for broken suspension components, or something in the driveline, like possibly u-joins? It only does it right when I start from a stop. Has anyone had this problem that can point me in the right direction?
Thanks

No, trust me its not the antenna. This is something serious and heavy, its not a clunk or a squeak, its a creak, that would be the best way I could describe it, maybe more on the left side then the right.
And VT will get their *** kicked by Miami unless we get our stuff in gear.

Hey guys this is in the driveline somewhere, not anywhere else. I can ride around with my head down with the door open. Its something attached to the rear axle, but i cant tell where the sound is exactly coming from, nor can i see anything that looks broken.

I hsve the same problem but on the passengers side. I really hear it if I am in second gear at a low rpm and push the gas. It sounds like a grinding moaning creak or something. I al so cannot locate the source. I am putting the car on the rack tommorrow and will et you know if I find anything.

Ok I think the noise is comming from the torque arm bushing. It looks like its cracked or part of it is missing. I went to the dealer and they want to order the whole arm, just to get the bushing. Which is $115. I have been to junkyards, and seen plenty of torque arms, but no bushings on them. Does anyone know any place I could order just a bushing.
