When passengers sit on the back of the car and get off the car, the car makes noise. If the car is parked I get next to it and start moving it up and down it also makes the noise. I'm not sure if it's the shocks or parking break?

There's lots of different kinds of noises. Saying "makes noise" is like saying "I'm in pain". You don't know if I have a hang nail, I cut my foot off with a chain saw, or my ex-girlfriend came back!

Do you hear a squeak, a rattle, a clunk? Do you hear it while driving? Cars weren't designed to have people sitting ON them. Is the noise coming from the suspension or the trunk lid? What happens when you put a load of people inside the car?
