just looked at mine (sorted my creaking suspension incidentally) and they look tired and my friendly mechanic pointed out that the knocking sound is the bushes on the anti-roll bars.

hence: where's best to buy them? OPC or design911 type shop? Anyone have any reco's on good/bad/avoid at all costs?

cheers

how did you sort out the creaking?

it was a bolt that protruded ever so slightly and was just rubbing the inner face of the disc (not suspension related at all in fact) when turning left (you just see where its taken the dirt/rust off the top layer of the bolt) but nothing damaged, couple of minor marks on the disc....

Funny my mechanic mate just said "yeah thats rotational not your suspension" hearing it before even seeing it...and then told me the bushes were shagged :)

TBH they're not expensive wherever you get them from, depend if you are gong to fit them yourself or get and indy to do it, if so I'd let them supply also.
