When pulling away there is a creaking noise coming from the rear of the car and when reversing with a bit of power there is a loud bang from the rear of the car. It sounds like it is coming from just before the rear seat. It actually sounds like some thing is hitting the underneath of the car.

If I pull away very very gently there is no creaking.

Any suggestions? This is driving me mad

 

The car is a 1992 e36 325 coupe, the rear trailing arm bushes, rear shock top mounts, the two rear diff mounts and two shockers have been fitted.
