944 rear suspension squeak!

Guys
Noticed today that I now have a loud rubbery squeak from the offside rear of the car-mostly when pulling away, but I can make it do it by bouncing my weight on the drivers door shut. No time to get it on ramps at the moment, so any ideas which bush is the likely culprit? (Shocks are almost new.)
Thanks.
 
Better get it up for a look - this might be a shock loosening up (you said recently changed). Better safe than trying to buy new shock bushes without a shock...
 
I will when I can. The shocks are VERY recent-they even have the Porsche paper parts labels still on them!
I was wondering if it might be ARB?
 
Hi mate,

I'm in the same boat as you although my noise was always louder on the N/S.

I fitted new Sach shocks and although the ride is better and my old shocks were mega old the noise is still there.

Greasing the ARB bushes would be the first thing to try. Use red rubber grease or silicone grease.
