Help. Been out in the V8V today for a blast and have developed a creeking and cracking noise from under the dash when throwing the car into either a hard left or right hand corner. Any ideas.Thanks

Had this issue with my previous DB9.. Discovered that mine was caused by the front strut braces coming loose. Torqued them back up to spec and the creaking was gone. Workshop Manual for DB9 specify 49Nm. Good luck thumbup

Had this for over 2 years and 2 dealers failing to solve. Local garage (old school fella who used to prep rally cars) sorted it. He said that it seemed when the clutch had been changed some of the bolts underneath had been loosened and then re tightened with the wheels off the ground. He loosened stuff off and re torqued it while on his lift ramp with the weight of the car on the wheels. Charged me £30 bless him.
