Default New sound coming from driver rear

Lately after the car has been sitting in the cold, when I first start driving there is a new creaking/moaning sound coming from what sounds like the rear drivers side axle. Last night I heard it with the top up and only at low speeds. Its most noticeable when I let off the throttle and coast under 20mph, getting back on the gas and applying any kind of load makes the sound get very quiet and almost go away. After a 15 min freeway drive the sound is pretty much gone so the dealership hasn't been able to find the problem yet because it goes away by the time I get there, after hearing it again last night I figured it was time to come back to s2ki and ask for help.

The car is an 07 with about 45K on it, im the original owner, suspension is bone stock.

what do you guys think?

I think you ran over your GF and she's still moaning/complaining. Drive over her again!



Go check all the bolts in the suspension. Actually better yet, have Rudy do it for you.

I can't run over her again until we get more life insurance on her and bad Mexican comes with a smell to go with the sound so I don't think it's that
