Rear driverside creaking noise please help
Here once again sadly with another problem lol.
i noticed a low grumble/vibration coming from the rear end driver side. I stopped immediately and inspected the wheel well for any clues everything looks as it should, tires still have good pressure 1 psi under factory spec on the rear driver side. So I continued home. Next day which is today the low grumble turned into a loud rotational sqeak at low speeds and not on wot, however i did see some flex in the side wall of the tire on that side so i set both tires to 32 psi and still the same noise it really sounds like a deflated tire but isn't. Could this be a wheel bearing even though its not a contant squeak? Or is in some sort of bushing in the suspension? Even though the sqeak isnt caused by bumps in the road or when i put all my weight on the rear a few times.. just wanna know if anyone has had this problem and what turned out to be the cause

Water Foul
Your use of the words, "creak" and "squeak" lend to a bad or dry bushing. Contrasting that, your use of the words, "grumble" and "rotational" lend toward a bearing, CV joint, tire, or differential failure. Can you record a video of the sound and post it here? So far, it is impossible to diagnose from your description.
