    Didnt expect that, ive checked suspention, bushes etc with no joy. Went through an MOT with no advisories. So what do i need to do to sort it then?

    Look down where the boot-lid locks on to. Remove the plastic trim in the boot. There's two bolts that loosen to move the metal bit down (not sure of the proper name, but it's what the lid locks on to)! Mine moved down about 1-2 mm, and that was enough tto stop it creaking
