What parts could do this besides the shocks? My rear drivers side creaks at low speeds, and if I push down on the back of the car when I'm stopped. It isn't the shock (replaced less than 10k ago). What other parts do this, bushings maybe? Or is the car just old. Anyway if you have had this problem any input would be appreciated, Thanks.

my car did that when i replaced my stock setup with kyb's and hks springs. I think it was the rear strut mounts, but i'm not certain. Is it a rubbery creak or kind of a metal popping/creaking sound? It may be the subframe.

Hmm not sure what you mean...but I replaced the shock with a KYB GR2 a few months ago and the noise is just starting now.
