My UZZ31 has this weird creaking sound on bumps when it is cold until it warms up? The system seems to be working fine but this 'creaking' noise is quite prominent and very annoying!

Changing the height or from normal to sports seems to help it faster? Once the car has been driven for a bit it fades.

As I only got this one a couple of weeks ago (Soarer #6) I am not sure if the warmer weather will help or not at this stage?

Any idea's?

^ that, and perhaps lubricating them a bit? I had the same problem and it didn't go away fully even after fitting brand new sway bar bushes.
I think it's something you have to live with due to the properties of cold rubber ?
