Default Rear shock absorbers noise.

Hello all,

just have to ask for it has been the most significant (among just few) problem with Ceed in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. Don't remember anyone mentioned it on this forum.

Can start after 3000-5000 km, but usually (as in my case) - 300-500 km and increasing gradually. Sometimes but not always can be connected with below zero weather conditions but many owners reported they were quite OK in -25 and others suffer in +10, so this is probably not the reason. Typical conditions are 30-40 (50) km/h (20-30 m/h) and bad roads. When I go 90 km/h damned things are silent.

Kia distributor here in Russia behaves like a partisan hiding and waiting until the enemy (happy customers) gets tired and fixes the problem with their own hands and money.

Does anyone know about Ceed's shock absorbers noise? Onwers from colder places are most welcome! And others too.
