Squeaking from the back of the car?
Every time I get in or out of the car, I can hear a loud creaking/squeaking in the rear. It is on both sides. Very annoying. I can push down on the trunk and it will squeak up and down. Getting progressively worse.
What could it be?

I get the same noise. And I just had the shocks replaced. Noise was before and after the shocks were replaced. I am going to try the handbrake test mentioned earlier.
If it is the handbrake, I guess it needs adjustment?

It's not the handbrake. I know the sound you're talking about, it's not that. I'll try to take a video.

I ask because I am now experiencing it and it seems to be getting worse. It seems to come mainly from the rear, especially when first starting to drive after being parked for a while (I do park with handbrake on). It usually happens in reverse, but I usually park head-in, so that also coincides with first starting out when having been parked a while. It is a decidedly metallic creaking sound. My suspension is stock except for bushing inserts.

For me it's the handbrake. Has been and I can't get rid of it. I only use the handbrake when parking on a hill now. It's embarrassing.

It's probably the trailing arm bushings. I was told that could have been what my noise was. Then I did the E-brake test and that got rid of it. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
