Leather, seatbelts, springs, could be anything mate!

Get somebody to drive the car when your in the back and try to hear where it is coming from

Mine was definitely not the exhaust....turned out to be the exhaust

Get some grease in the rear 2 mounts, also check the handbrake cable has not come loose

If it's coming from the rear drivers side it could be the exhaust heat shield come loose.

Jack the car up on your driver side (my passenger side ^^ )

And Lube the fittings wich keep the Handbrake Line in place.
There is one in the near of the pre silencer and one at the rear axle.

That was it at least on my one ^^
Repeat this after every winter and it should be gone.

If you want to be sure that it comes from the handbrake, get in your car and ask a buddy to move the handbrake line a bit under the car.

Should make that horrible noise ^^

just looks at the exhaust- there are these little rubber things shaped like the number 8- spray them anywhere you can see them (shouldn't be too many of them maybe 3 or 4)
As for the hand break cable just get right underneath the car and imagine where the hand break would be inside then underneath that is pretty much where the cable emerges beneath the car- follow this along the car and spray all the places where its held onto the bottom of the car

No pic sry but its easy to find !
You will see the handbrake line when you have your head unde rthe car !

Or you can follow it from the rear brake along to the fitting points.

Ps.
If your car isnīt lowered you should be able to get your head under the car without jcking up the car^^
