Very likely to be dry rubber bushes on the shocks. Remove the bolts and give everything a good greasing and will probably cure it.

Not sure, possibly, the only reason i say that is coz mine creaks alot when the handbrake is on, like when I get in the car and jiggle around a bit it make a groaning sort of sound a bit like when I get on my girlfriend and jiggle around :lol:
