I'll move this to the mk5 section as most of them tend to be quite shy and not venture out to other sections too often. :tongue:

Hi Drew and welcome to the forum :cool:

Which area of the car is it coming from? Front, Rear? Inside, Outside?

I'm guessing at the anti-roll bar bushes, both my mk5's have done this.

I had a squeeak and figured it was the rear parcel shelf. Get some lubrication put on the rubber parts of the parcel shelf. I used some vaselene, but you can try the proper stuf which is ...... bollocks I forgot the name but any motor shop should be able to advise!
