Is there anything more durable than the Wd40?

No that would be a main dealer job, I will see how it goes and if it does come back take it in.

My car has had 2 rounds of creaking suspension problems, most noticeable on speed bumps and when pulling into driveways at awkward angles.

Been greased up both times but the fact it comes back the grease is either not suitable or just a temporary fix.  Get it down to your dealers....

Actually I think I got it wrong, the squeak came back next time I used the car so I jumped in the back to try and sort it once and for all, it was coming from the back seat on the drivers side but I couldn't understand why. I decided on a whim to grease the rear lockinocking mechanism but wasn't to confident it would resolve the issue but to my surprise it has. I have been squeak free for the last week and I really have tried to provoke it to come back driving over rough roads and speed bumps but it has gone and good riddance.
