    Getting a slight creaking from the front right suspension when I brake to park up and a very slight hop when driving.

    Thoughts ?

    I had same problem with the focus. It turned out to be a wishbone bushing. I got the whole wishbone replace as it was a cheaper option. Hope this helps.

    Polyurethane bushings can squeak alot if not lubed up well.

    Did they use the grease while fitting them? I would also check for leaks from the dampers and for worn springs. It would be easier for a trained eye to spot these things if it were up on a ramp. They might just need to be retorqued.
