Unable to identify squashing noise rear left over bumps
I can't describe the noise accurately, a kind of rubbing/squashing/crunching/ominous noise - I've attached a video where you can hear it. This happened spontaneously about two months ago without a cause.
Basically whenever I go over a bump I get this noise from the rear cabin - I don't know if it's the suspension or bodywork or something else? Any help which direction to go in would be appreciated:
If I push down on the car when it's stationary I can't seem to replicate the noise, even with a lot of us pushing the car up and down.
Changed all suspension to Tein Flex Z about a year ago, and changed all bushings at the same time.
Thanks,

Yep, you'll have to look around. Common culprit is worn out pillow ball bushings in the back. Could also be the new bushings are noisy.
