Yeah I have to admit the creak doesn't seem 'bearingy' but that directionally influenced symptom is sounding bearingish

Cheers chaps - might see about getting it swapped over.

That said, it came on the day after I was under the car sprayin grease on the brake lines - and has been getting quiter with time?

Might just see how it goes, but not sure what I could have sprayed grease onto to create a noise?

You haven't got poly bushes in have you? Rhauri? They sound like a creaky bed when they have run out of grease.

A rotational creak from the rear axle is classic hub nut symptom.

Get a new hub nut, remove the old, get some grease on to the driveshaft splines (they'll be rusty), torque the hub nut up correctly and the noise will go.

Not plolybushed no matey.

Lower - thanks for this pal, a great help, I'll do this very thing. Any chance you know the torque for it, or where I can find out?

I got the click with my first s2000 and torquing a new nut to 300nm fixed it.

The second s2000 i had from new and i started to get a creak as you describe. Then it went but i was pretty certain what the noise was so took it to honda. The hub nut hadn't been staked from new and was undoing itself!
