Not really. PFL door cards are normally much quieter, and tend not to suffer the rattles and shakes of the FL ones.

This cold weather brings out all the squeaks & creaks.

I`m getting more off a creaking noise from the nearside rear sometimes.

first noticed it driving slowly dab the brakes .........creak!
then nothing for a couple of days & this morning backing out brake a bit .......creak!
The coil springs are fine, about the only thing I spotted are rotten looking exhaust pipes connecting to the rear box, so that`s looking like a new exhaust systen before July mot. rocking  the car stationary & nothing. must be something related to the rear suspension.
